The Child and the Student
Rhyming Couplet Ideas by Maxwell McDowell
I am pleased by the appearance of "idlewild", but rhyming student with rodent is just plain lazy.
See the calling of the child,
I think he's angry at the idlewild.
He finds it hard to see the shark,
Overshadowed by the perfect male monarch.
Who is that skipping near the cube?
I think she'd like to eat the auditory tube.
She is but a smart student,
Admired as she sits upon a rodent.
Her jolly car is just a friend,
It needs no gas, it runs on blend.
She's not alone she brings a ghost,
a pet aardvark, and lots of blade roast.
The aardvark likes to chase a snail,
Especially one that's in the zale.
The child shudders at the academic turtle
He want to leave but she wants the ertel.

Okay, I like the idea of a ghost, pet aardvark, and blade roast. Agree that student/rodent rhyme was criminal.
ReplyDeleteI think we can all agree that the real MM, when time allows, is the better writer.
ReplyDeleteHate the rhyme, but somehow like that she's admired for sitting on a rodent. Really low bar these kids set!
