GAME: Rhyme Time
CREATOR: The Muse
OBJECTIVE: Interactive Fun
PLAYERS: Readers
the readers then add to the comment section
(one, two, three or four lines)
which “add” to the poem. Each reader should use
the previous writer’s comments,
to build upon the Rhyme.
EXAMPLE:
Muse writes “The sky is true blue.”
Reader 1 writes “Is it true or just the hue?”
Reader 2 writes “I can see it, why can’t you?”
Muse writes “Perhaps the sky is truly gray.”
Reader 3 writes “Gray? Oh not on this lovely day!”
LET’S PLAY

Hortense was not obtuse…

Tho’ she could not define masseuse
Happy Engagement Day!!!
Theresa @ Cottage Violets
her pink French dictionary was not much use!
… So she hurled it with abuse
At a startled passing moose!
The activity gave her mood a boost,
But so sad for the moose
For is had suffered so much abuse…
I am afraid it will no longer
Sell juice!
(yes this moose sells juice)
But so sad for the moose
For it had suffered so much abuse…
I am afraid it will no longer
Sell juice!
(yes this moose sells juice)
A moose that sells juice?
How obtuse!
… now you ask me,
… where should I go
… what do I do?
… for I must have my juice from my favorite moose!
A moose with juice?
Rather have milk from a goose!

Milk from a goose?
Juice from a moose?
Me thinks there are
Some marbles loose!
I like my milk — chocolate
I like my juice — grape,
I like my seller foxy
Dressed in a fur drape!
But what about Hortense?
With new Merdedes Benz,
She drove into the fence,
She’s just a little dense!
She hit the moose,
Sidewiped the goose,
Just missed the fox,
But ruffed its locks!
But mathematics…
She had not practiced…
Indeed, for quite sometime…
Her whole purpose for being…
Was to exist singularly in rhyme…
So abstract was her perception…
She haphazardly determined…
To move in a new direction…
With bloggers and moose in mind…
She figured the hypotenuse,
Which ended in a short lived goose,
She tried trusty Pythagoras,
The moose now wears a whale-bone truss,
But Euclid and Garfield proved to be,
The end of Hortense R. McGee…..
RIP
(Sorry All,
I could not contain it today, I needed this badly, and it has been great therapy. Thank you Muse for your great generosity of spirit)

But with a little magic
and dabbling with the occult
The one known as Hortense R. McGee
Came back reincarnated as a bee!
If A is greater than C…
But less than D, F or E…
Then where oh where …
Will Hortense “BEE” ?
AJ
I believe
I saw her
Quietly walk by…
I believe
I saw her
Gingerly eating “pi”…..
Brava, Bellissima, fitting ending
