Loglimerhyme, Larry Jennings' variant of Logarhyme w/ 332332 pulse meter Options

[JustDaniel]

If the snake has no face, is it poop?
Does it always show up when you swoop
on the rabbit at dark?
You can tell any tale that you like
as you did to your kid on the trike;
just don't hunt in the park.

[Larry]

When you hunt in the park for big game
but you can’t find a trophy you’d claim
and hang up on your wall
then I’d say that your hunt was a flop
like a basketball playing short-stop;
find a game not so tall.

[JustDaniel]

If you've looked high and low for a game
but can't find it, perhaps you could blame
your sad lack of sleep
or, the snow is too deep
to find golf balls that you can reclaim.

[Larry]

Another Limerick, huh Daniel?


If you’re finding golf balls to reclaim
for your new business venture, its fame
is assured because shmoes
slice and hook into woods, ponds and rough
and when lost, they don’t look hard enough
so they’ll never be pros.

[JustDaniel]

I will not be a pro 'limerhymer
but perhaps you will be my refiner
so don't give up on me.
I get lost in the weeds when I'm sick
like I've been this past week; you can kick-
start me; just wait and see.

[Larry]

A kick start when I’m waiting’s not just
nor do I feel that you should be cussed;
I eschew foot and mouth
to be used as a goad for one’s muse.
Though I have a sharp tongue and big shoes,
we have patience down south!

[JustDaniel]

I no longer have patience down there
'cause it seems to relieve unaware
and more often each day.
I've been moved to be praying when prostrate
for what may be a problem with prostate;
wonder what doc will say.

[Larry]

Wonder what doc will say or deduce
when examining front and caboose
for malfunctioning guts
but I’d guess he’ll proscribe some new med
which will keep you at home and in bed
without ifs, ands or buts.

[JustDaniel]

If your if, and and butt keep you home
and you have time for reading a tome
but you still cannot sleep
you should stop drinking coffee and tea
'cause the caffeine just makes you agree
that the daylight's a creep.

[Larry]

That the daylight will creep through the shade
and stab you in the eyes like a blade
happens time and again
so you try to close up the small slit
in the blinds but you may as well quit
‘cause you’re not sleeping in.

[JustDaniel]

I had tried to sleep in yesterday
but the grandkids decided to play
on the bed in my room;
I joined in for a while till my eyes
couldn't stand any more, and with sighs
chased them out with a broom.

[Larry]

If you’re chasing grandkids with a broom
straddle it like a horse, say zoom, zoom
until they want to ride
on that magical steed you inspired.
Let them know that it never gets tired
then you go back inside.

[JustDaniel]

When you go back inside, lock the door;
you'll have time then to mop up the floor
before they come back in.
When they've all had their fill of the snow
you can feed them their lunch and then show
them that naps are for men.

[Larry]

Naps for men; what an excellent thing
to be taken in Winter, not Spring
for that’s when we have chores.
Mow the grass, plant a garden, trim tree
for that’s where our new hammock will be
for that nap out of doors.

[JustDaniel]

If you nap out-of-doors in the snow
it won't be long before you can't blow
up balloons with your breath.
If you think that pneumonia ain't big
and that you really don't give a fig
then you're flirting with death.

[Larry]

Only fools flirt with death and they mush
to another adrenaline rush;
simple pleasures won’t do
like a family outing or friends
sharing life as though it never ends.
Why the rush to be through?





First line did read "Only fools flirt with death and then rush"

[JustDaniel]

When you rush to get through and use rush
for your rhyme in two lines for a rush
and then use it again
I must ask, Why the rush to get through?
Must you rush home to fry your Purdue?
Will you sprinkle cayenne?

[Larry]

Will you sprinkle cayenne in each gash
made with barbs for one word? You tongue-lash
when a heads-up would do;
but I guess that is what you intend.
I shall edit post haste but my friend
I like paprika too.

[JustDaniel]

Does my pap reek o' witherin' scribbles
making fun o' yer 'casional dribbles?
I was just makin' fun.
Now don't tell me your skin is so skinny
that you'd sit in a corner and whinny
while avoiding the sun.

[Larry]

While avoiding the sun at the beach
he applied two sun-blocks, one of each
with an SPF ten
thinking they would add up and suffice
to protect and keep tan looking nice
but now he’s peeling skin.
