Jumble Poetry Slam

We all know it’s hard to shake
our poets’ daily give-and-take.

At every junction
y’all continue to function.
As for me—hey, Gimme a break!

"Lab Gab"

We feared that the troublesome gossip
would make our reputation swerve,
and create a worrisome dip
in all the projects we were hired to serve.

The problem was that our chum
had liberated a fungus
and now, beyond our atrium,
it flourished gladly among us.

We tried our best to outfox
the rumors spread by the nerds
and to keep the fungus in locks,
and the gossips at a loss for words.

Our efforts were effective and brave
and so we did our project save.

Don’t use the Wordle-bot suggestion today. So many possibilities.

Sticks and Stones

Never at a loss for words,
The gossip rattled on
With her inane comments.
Nothing could outfox her
Or swerve her from her course.
The atrium of her heart was cold,
She savaged from the oldest to the youngest.
Gladly I would have muzzled her.

Well Misty, you and I are holding up the Fort today as OMK has his Sunday break. Of course WC may join us yet . . . and we hope that OwenKL is okay.

I found the group of words we were given today hard to join together. And rhyming was out of the question for me today. But you have succeeded admirably. Your Lab theme manages to showcase all the J words. I did laugh at the thought of liberating a fungus! Who knows, we might find a new medication, similarly to the discovery of penicillin. Happily, the project was saved.

Wordle hint- the word is in my offering (and is a CSO to one of our Corner friend).

You know, Ol' Man Keith, you pretend not to be much of a poet, but you're actually pretty brilliant. Here it is, Sunday, the day you're supposed to take off and take a break, and we get a message from you in the scheme of aabba--such an organized scheme that I bet it even has a poetic name of some sort. And I bet you know it and can give it to us. Bravo! Bravo!

And CanadianEh!, you don't need rhymes to also produce terrific verses. I wish I knew how to describe your strategy, which is wonderful, because it is so clean and clear with a vivid theme always, that also always has some emotional depth.

Wish Wilbur had posted today, because he also deserves a generous tribute to his keen talent not only in poetry, but also in narrative and drama.

And, Owen, please, please, come back to us soon. I think you may have been the one who got us started at poetry altogether, and here we are, a talented and productive community of amateurs all turning into artists. Thank you for that.

Thanks for your kind words Misty. I did not anticipate when I joined this blog to share Wordle, that I would find myself developing my poetic side. I do try to keep it natural and unforced (which is why there often is no rhyme - but hopefully a reason!).

I still have to do the J but I should have thought of that word I uses fln for Wordle 512 5/6

⬛🟩🟨⬛🟩

As it is I stole tge solution from C-eh

so obvious but it escaped me. Cheating on #4 didn't help. I actually entered INATE but "no such word!"
Two Ns?

I'm going to CC now

When Louis met up with Chet in the atrium of the office where he worked
She noticed his demeanor at once for he was at a loss for words
"I hate gossip " Chet exclaimed. They think they're fun guys
But fungi is more like it. Andy is a moron and his cohort is a jerk."
Lois gladly took his hand and gave him a hug. We'll outfox those turds.
In a few months we'll walk down the aisle to their gasps and sighs.

ABCABC, A little something different

Wilbur, a very novel rhyme scheme! Does it have a name or a history? Very interesting.

"You're right m'love, we'll throw those blokes a curve
Just when they think we're going one way we'll swerve"
