Lots of rhymes and near-rhymes - In Australian English they don't always rhyme - but it is a fun poem and reveals your character and personality very well. I did wonder why some of the words are capitalised although they are not proper nouns? Butan enjoyable read.

    .Wendy, as in my notes this silly little monorhyme was goofing around,
    'but whether others rhyme or not why bring that up for a monorhyme? I can feel the sarcasm that you didn't care for it. And that's fine.
    I was challenging myself with all real rhymes and at the end where
    l capitalize I always feel better when l do anything to do w God's belongings, especially when not in a contest. Its a habit I have, respect for God '

    I am sorry if I upset you! I thought it was a fun poem and done in fun, and I had absolutely no intention or thought of being sarcastic. That never even entered my head. I was simply pointing out a cultural difference.

    Maybe I'm a little too touchy, as it didn't seem like you.
    I guess I thought it a strange time to tell of any culture that doesn't rhyme. Of course l do
    Know of those. But rhyming is my style. I'm sorry to misunderstand as you are too lovely of a woman and friend to be sarcastic and disrespectful.. Please accept my apologies for that.

    Thank you Debbie. I knew it rhymed for you and for Americans so you had achieved your goal. But I don?t know how you pronounce some of those words as it is evidently different. But as I said, it was an enjoyable read.
    I am not a sarcastic person, and would never intentionally be either sarcastic or disrespectful, to you or to anyone else. All good.

This is a cute little poem and I like it. It's packing a punch meaning it's got some good stuff in it. I like how the poet used rhyming throughout the end of the poem. I also like that the poets speak about family and how she spends time with her grandkids and teach them: what's tolerated and what's not. I like that the poet encourages the reader to be kind. I like these type poems, great job.

    Hi Rena, I thank you so much for the kind words for this meg-mono rhyme. I love to challenge myself with bigger things and by rhyming this with only one rhyme, keeping a perfect meter and still have it make sense and tell a little story was big for me. So I do appreciate your lovely comments. Thanks my beautiful friend.

Wow, I have to give you a 6 because all that amazing rhyming deserves it. Yes sadly our bodies are to quickly shot, what a drag, but there is much love, learning and God guidance in between. Well done and fun. Rox

This is a fun monorhyme. Sometimes the things written while in a silly mood are more amusing and show the humorous side of life. Love the many emotions in this one as you give us a slice of your life.

Do you rhyme very much? I do think so. I love how you managed to find so many rhyming words to express your wonderful thoughts and sentiments. You have turned into a regular rhyming machine. You literally rhyme on a dime every time.

    Oh Nomi, I think it has taken over me like some kind of illness. I have to be careful I don't talk in rhyme. I just love rhyming! So I may have to be known as the rhyming birthday poet. Hey at least I don''t rhyme in my prose work. Lol. But the truth is I started to a few times and had to stop myself.
    Thanks for your caring words.my dear bro.

You did a great job with your poem, Debi. First of all, the
artwork was perfect. Even at a young age, Kenzie showed
talent as an artist. Your use of internal was great. In all cases,
you made it make sense. My favorite line was, well there are
so many, but this one was great ~ In times of sorrow, I have
sought, to not surrender, not be bought. That was an awesome
statement we can all lean from. I liked the playfulness of you,
Grandma, enjoying spending time with the gtans and teaching
them about life.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

    Awe Jan, thank you so much for the kind things you said about the poem. It started off as just being funny, but you know me and rhyming and trying to make sense, so thus I had something written ahead so I could post.
    Thanks again my very dear friend. Hugs!

Wowzers. (A really scholarly comment, don't you think? Smile)

The internal monorhymes are what put this one over the top! Monorhyme PLUS!

I see, like me, you are a saver of all kiddos art work... It's the best to go back and shuffle through them.

Such a sweet poem. Love the ending! Hell can freeze over, Debi.

No way you're heading "south!"
