Oh I see we're talking in rhyme Well gee, let's all have a swell time. I did not know Keith was a poet Such talent and we didnt know it.
Yes I was late to Betsy's show While Keith got first and began to crow. I was talking to a very nice blogger As he crept in fast, just like a jogger
I think we have caught a bug from Pat 'cause we've started rhyming tit for tat Soon we shall all start to do it We'll all be poets before we knew it . . lol
Pat I wonder did you sneeze? We've caught the bug just like a breeze We're writing words which all rhyme I'd better go ~ my is that the time?
My, you're giving Pat a run for his money! Just wait until he sees this, honey! He's bound to rhyme longer than you for he doesn't like anyone to outdo! Spreading a rhyming germ through a sneeze, oh my germ ocd is not pleased! That cat named Hatt needs to wear a surgical mask!
I think you've left Eddie speechless although much of this was meaningless, but you can go on and on from sunset until dawn. And I knew you'd take the bait. Was never one to hate a little challenge to chime on longer than any old rhyme-monger. lol....
Betsy my dear, you called me honey, I felt so good, my head's gone funny . . . lol I think you are right I will cannot win 'Cause Pat would think that a huge sin
Besides you're five hours ahead of me So if I write a sonnet I'm sure you'll agree Pat would stay up to write one bigger While I sleep and then he'd snigger.
Victory is mine, he would say As he wrote more lines later today Unless Suza wants to have a go And gets some verses in a row.
I think you wrote a lovely rhyme Iambic beat in perfect time. And Keith did not do too bad either But he can't compete with Pat, neither
He's gone to rest his weary head And now is resting in his bed. Which is where I ought to be In land of nod, tucked up safely.
Quite a cute little poem from you as you write with the moon in full view! Better not stay up too late let the sand man partake. Pat will beat us all eventually because it all comes to him naturally!
My feet were planted firmly on the floor. No need for neighbors to peak through windows or doors. Didn't see anyone snooping about. He learned his lesson without a doubt!
Oh my goodness I see the Eddie and Pat wars are on in full swing.....HaHa...makes for fun reading....Oh yes....the crab apples....I almost forgot i got carried away with the word battle. HaHa
Nice photo, Betsy. I can't wait to be in my kitchen looking out the window in the actual house. Looking out the window from the second floor doesn't quite cut it. Thanks so much for the 'penny' tip. haha!
Crabby Appleton... here Not sure why I thought of him. Summer is counting down. I am sad to admit it, but on the other side comes fall and I like that very much :0)
Your favorite day of the week, Monday! That is a lovely view you have Betsy. I love the end of summer, Autumn maybe better but only if the Autumn is bright blue sky, sun and chilly, that is my fav! Then all the colours, wow! My son has his bday in October and I love to decorate for the fall bday parties :-) what on Earth got me talking about Autumn now ... haha! Have a lovely week!
haha...just as I was reading your comment, the mister walked by and said, "It's Monday...your favorite day of the week!" :) Yes, a fresh day...fresh new week...and a little quiet around here after the weekend! Yes, I love autumn, too....no season has those blue, blue skies! The end of summer is lovely, too....kind of the best of summer with a hint of fall in it.
Hi Betsy - I think summer stopped here yesterday - bucketing with rain today and for the rest of the week - still we all need rain, as do the fruit and veg and panting birds ... Wonderful place to see the seasons change as the crab apple tree delivers its year for us ... cheers Hilary
Oh, I'm sure summer will reappear....it's only 2/3rd over! haha. And it's always nice to get rain when you need it...we've had a good amount this summer and it's been wonderful how green everything has been. A bit too much for my garden, but still hard to complain.
They aren't crab apples! You should see the BIG ones we grow in the Mother Country, makes yours look like cherries. Ha!
ReplyDeleteThese are about the size of cherries!
DeleteJust pulling your leg. . .
DeleteI thought I felt something...ha.
DeleteWith a view like that it is a pleasure to do the dishes . . :)
ReplyDeleteYes, so true! And a dishwasher helps a lot, too!
DeleteEddie may try with all his might,
Deletebut I was first tonight.
He cannot outwit me now,
That is something I wont allow.
Late he was to the show
Deleteso the teasing will go and go!
Pat will like your rhyming, too!
Bet he mentions it at my zoo!
Oh I see we're talking in rhyme
DeleteWell gee, let's all have a swell time.
I did not know Keith was a poet
Such talent and we didnt know it.
Yes I was late to Betsy's show
While Keith got first and began to crow.
I was talking to a very nice blogger
As he crept in fast, just like a jogger
I think we have caught a bug from Pat
'cause we've started rhyming tit for tat
Soon we shall all start to do it
We'll all be poets before we knew it . . lol
Pat I wonder did you sneeze?
We've caught the bug just like a breeze
We're writing words which all rhyme
I'd better go ~ my is that the time?
LOL
My, you're giving Pat a run for his money!
DeleteJust wait until he sees this, honey!
He's bound to rhyme longer than you
for he doesn't like anyone to outdo!
Spreading a rhyming germ through a sneeze,
oh my germ ocd is not pleased!
That cat named Hatt
needs to wear a surgical mask!
A run for my money?
DeleteLol that is kinda funny
Wouldn't one have to have money first?
Might be a short running burst
But I will not let him win
Can't do me in
As the cat sends out an army of fleas
Leaving bites on many knees
Then you get the germ
In the rhymes will worm
Even if you have to make up a fake term
While out getting a perm
Hey, you never know
Some people like to give that a go
Maybe with a ho ho ho
I have now strayed though
What else is new?
Plenty in view
Is it new if it is old?
Maybe just festers like mold
That would stink
Maybe get a wink
Then the mold killer would win
Do every human in
Death by mold
My story has been told
The why and what and how
Would just make people have a cow
Don't push too hard though
Just thought I'd let you know
And then when you hear the moo
I guess that would be something new
Full circle I'm come
Might think I'm drunk by some
But liquor is just the pits
I gives me the umm shlits
See, a made up word
How absurd
But have to stay PG
Or Betsy might scold me
Think I'm through yet?
Might be a safe bet.
Or really not
I haven't go to the plot
The absence of a plot is the plot
And now you've been taught
I will now go roll in the grass
With my ever so little rhyming ass
Whoops, let it slip
That came from the hip
But you saw it coming
Okay to do a little outside of PG slumming
I think you've left Eddie speechless
Deletealthough much of this was meaningless,
but you can go on and on
from sunset until dawn.
And I knew you'd take the bait.
Was never one to hate
a little challenge to chime on longer
than any old rhyme-monger.
lol....
lol nonsense wins the day
DeleteAt least at my run on rhyming bay
Betsy my dear, you called me honey,
DeleteI felt so good, my head's gone funny . . . lol
I think you are right I will cannot win
'Cause Pat would think that a huge sin
Besides you're five hours ahead of me

In land of nod, tucked up safely.
Night and Sweet Dreams . . . :) lol
Quite a cute little poem from you
Deleteas you write with the moon in full view!
Better not stay up too late
let the sand man partake.
Pat will beat us all eventually
because it all comes to him naturally!
haha well I went to watch TV
DeleteAnd then sleep in the heat at my sea
So yours stayed for a while
Now I can go the rhyming mile
Out it just flows
Whichever way the wind blows
Suza can play
Even #1 many a day
Hank may not like that
Ruining his stat
As does Blue
But that you knew
What don't you know?
Which way the wind will blow?
I said that twice
How nice
Or how mean
Repeat on the screen
Who needs that?
Not the cat
Could do the hokey pokey
Or just give an okie dokey
Spell check hates that
Thinks I'm a dingbat
It may be right
But the cat has bite
So whatever works
Crazy has its perks
Now I'm through
Like a kangaroo
I'll bounce away
And be on my way
We were commenting on each other's blog at the same time
DeleteSeems like we should call 'jinx' as we type out the rhyme!
that is a lovely view when washing dishes!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it? A bird feeder hangs in that tree, too.....always something fun to see.
DeleteWhat a great view!
ReplyDeleteBut I don't see the faucet?
lol...oh, don't worry! It's still there!
DeleteSo your feet weren't in the sink
ReplyDeleteAs you got a peek outside your rink? lol
My feet were planted firmly on the floor.
DeleteNo need for neighbors to peak through windows or doors.
Didn't see anyone snooping about.
He learned his lesson without a doubt!
Oh my goodness I see the Eddie and Pat wars are on in full swing.....HaHa...makes for fun reading....Oh yes....the crab apples....I almost forgot i got carried away with the word battle. HaHa
ReplyDeleteIt is a most lovely view. Sending hugs.
They are and they haven't stopped yet! haha...They do make this very fun!
DeleteNice photo, Betsy. I can't wait to be in my kitchen looking out the window in the actual house. Looking out the window from the second floor doesn't quite cut it. Thanks so much for the 'penny' tip. haha!
ReplyDeleteYes, I know what you mean....and the views will have an entirely different look for you! You still have so much to look forward to!
DeleteI am thinking that my mom made jelly out of them back when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteyes...very common! I only tried it once but it was good!
DeleteNice looking crab apples. Do you do anything with them?? Jellies? Jams? Preserves? Or just simply let them brighten up your view?
ReplyDeleteI did make jelly once...it was a beautiful clear pink! Had a very mild taste, too. I usually just leave them for the birds!
DeleteBet your birdies have a feast. I haven't had crab apple jelly in years, but I remember enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a rhyming fest above!
The Starlings usually swoop in a few times and eat them all in the winter! Fun to watch!
DeleteCrab apples? Already.....geesh...where did Summer go?
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Linda :o)
One more month to enjoy!
DeleteSeems like fall is just around the corner!!
ReplyDeleteJane x
30 days and counting!
DeleteCrabby Appleton... here Not sure why I thought of him.
ReplyDeleteSummer is counting down. I am sad to admit it, but on the other side comes fall and I like that very much
:0)
I am sad to admit the end of summer, not the arrival of fall.
DeleteSo you like summer or fall better?
DeleteYes.
Delete:0)
