Twist: Creative Challenge #250

 

She was a gal of very few frills

When she danced, it gave you the chills

When she shook her big hips

Trying to learn how to  twist

Everyone ran screaming for the hills.

Pout: Creative Challenge #249

It was a warm and gentle spring day so I went out

I hadn’t gone far when I encountered a lazy lout

I asked, “What is this all about,” as I gave him a clout.

“How dare you flout your indolence, you sprout?

“You better scout the route back and finish my grout!”

 

 He stuck a single finger out and I began to shout

“This means all-out war! Where did I leave my knout?

He dropped to his knees in an effort to appear devout

“Pray about this,” says I, as I punched him in the snout.

 

He jumped to his feet and began dancing all about

Little did he know he had encountered a redoubt

He had delusions of adequacy this common roustabout

If this had been a ball game it would have been a shutout

 

Says I, “Come then, show me what you’ve got. I need a workout”

He asked for a timeout and gathered up his surtout

Suddenly he had a turnabout and my virtues he began to tout

“Very well, then,” says I, “Get back to work and lose the pout.”

 

 

You don’t have to pout, there is plenty more of Creative Challenge to go around.

The Color Of: Creatilve Challenge #248

Red is the color of the rose when in full bloom
Red is the color of your nose, because so often it is blown
Red is the color of your anger so recently shown
Red is the color of the fire which is found in your eye
Red is the color of your fury as your lover says goodbye

Blue is the color of your mood, seemingly dark as a well
Blue is the color of your words as you send him to hell
Blue is the color of the sea with its waves so tall
Blue is the color of the ocean into which he should fall

Bright yellow is the color of the sun, shining high above
Bright yellow is the color of your attitude with your new love
Bright yellow is the color of the flower you wear in your hair
Bright yellow is the color of the sunflowers we see everywhere.
