I Put Them Back, She Takes Them Out

I PUT THEM BACK, SHE TAKES THEM OUT I put them back, she takes them out In Tidyland she'll interfere This little miss is quite devout I stack them back, she drags them out Amidst the mess I start to shout "You help clean up these toys, you hear?" I shove them back, she turfs them out With Mummy's law, she'll interfere I mop it up, but she's devout And flings the juice from there to here She touts the pour and pulls the pout I wipe it up, but she's devout Will drain her teapot via spout Each drop enhancing wet veneer I soak it up, but she's devout In spreading mess from there to here I pile it up and she'll appear Then pelt around or fling about Untidyness is her career As I pick up, it would appear My Clean Campaign she's out to smear Her slothful gene's begun to sprout I pack it up, but she'll appear And so the endless roundabout ... ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ o<>o ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ |
The Triple Triolet Task contest entry
Recognized |
** This contest called for 3 Triolets linked together but could still stand alone when read.
No Christmas or Season themes.
Modified or Traditional.
I took the Modified route.
The standard or traditional Triolet is 8 lines of iambic tetra or pentameter.
Lines 1,4 and 7 repeat and also lines 2 and 8.
Rhyme scheme ABaAabAB
A Modified Triolet usually has the repeat lines varying slightly but with same word on end.
This is dedicated in entirety to my daugther Tahlia who is all of two years and eight months.
She is indeed a force to be reckoned with.
In one word: Relentless.
BTW, thanks to ME for organising this contest.
The pic IS the delightful little creature that is ruining my life at the moment. LOL
Thanks for reading.
I'm off to pick up the crap featured above ...
