To cement a relationship's hard;
A big challenge, and that's no canard.
Issues shouldn't be ducked,
Else you might self-destruct.
(Then again, I am naught but a bard.)

As a child, my father taught me this #rhyme, "Little Robin Redbreast sitting on a pole. Wig-wag went his tail. Pop went his hole."

My father didn't know it, but he was my #Wikipedia before it was.

"Do cats eat bats? Do cats eat bats?"
and sometimes, "Do bats eat cats?" —
for, you see, as she couldn't answer either question,
it didn't much matter which way she put it.

The report of Bluesky's death was an exaggeration 😉

Said a starry-eyed, non-boating male
To his wife, "Sammy's sailboat's for sale.
I must buy it! It's cheap!"
Her response was to weep
And reply "Better learn how to bail."

"My poor neighbor's not much of a saver,
So I did her a favor and gave 'er
Some financial advice.
Her reply was 'No dice!
I shall buy what I savor. Won't waver!'"

"I abhor cousin Stewy, it's true.
But don't judge me for feuding with Stu:
Yes I #harbor a grudge,
And I'm NOT gonna budge
Cuz he 'borrowed' and wrecked my canoe."

Here's a little bird,
and there's not a tittle heard,
and shares no bird word.

Said a woman, "It's easy to #lure me,
Because nothing can ever inure me
To fine choc'late's allure.
And of this I am sure:
There's undoubtedly NO way to cure me."

"Your nine dogs are a nuisance and blight,"
Said a neighbor. "They #bark day and #night.
Our whole block plans to sue."
Said the owner, "Boo-hoo!
Such ado! Let me know if they bite."

What advice does multi-published picture book author Carrie Finison have for other writers trying to get published with rhyming manuscripts?

#rhyme #rhymetime #writersofinstagram #amwriting #writingtips

A young fellow who hungered for power
Almost always looked angry; He'd glower
And he'd rage, then just stare,
But when met with a glare,
He (a delicate flower) would cower.
