With Passion in my Heart

I wrote this:

In the middle of the center
of the circle of his wiggle,
was the button of his belly
and the reason for his giggle.

When the tippit of his tickle
of his finger with a squiggle,
touched his tummy full of jelly,
just enough to make it wiggle.

But the jiggle woke a lintle
from the fuzzy of his nestle.
Peaking out, it shook its woolies,
at the keeper of its vessel.

for the nappers in your nichle?
Cut it out, or do it lestle.
Else I'll make your middle itchle!"

In the land of Milk and Honey

By the river full of money

And a pulpit there for teaching

There’s a melatonin screeching !

Though some say it’s angel’s choir

We cannot deny the fire

As our hearts seek to repress it

There is naught but to redress it!

For the innocence of children

And the preciousness of light

See no color in the rainbow

That is not the gift of sight.

Thence we summon up the demon

on the puppet strings of hate

and he dances for our pleasure

at the price of our own fate.

Now that...is

beautiful !

Your flair for poetic thought is almost , well.... astounding!

With Equal Passion
by OneEyedJasper

but less creativity I present this (written by not me)

I was sittin' flickin' chickens and going through the pickins' When suddenly these goys break down my walls

I did not even know them and they grab me by the scrotum And stated playing ping-pong with my balls

Oy the agony! Ooh the shame! To make your privates public for a game!

I was sitting in a temple, I was minding my own business, I was listening to a lovely Hebrew mass,

Then these papist persons plunge in, And they throw me in the dungeon, And they shove a red hot poker up my ass,

Is that considerate? Is that polite? And not a tube of preparation H in sight!

It's not your best, by any means, but by GOD, I think you mean every bit of the squiggly giggly wiggly expressed in it.

Lots of lush verbal texture here, tongue twisters, actually, but fun to read aloud. Kinda reminded me of Lewis Carroll. Only one suggestion -- instead of 'belly' in line 3, repeat 'middle' because it doubly loops back on the referents that way.

It is lovely, but I disagree with your suggestion. I like the alliteration of button/belly better.

alliteration. i knew there was a word for it.
by catnapping

when i first used it...it was a play on the word, bellybutton.

but the fact that they both started with the same letter worked out well.

i do like the way 'middle' works, in a different way...cuz then all the words in that group make a short 'I' sound.

so i'm gonna run my tongue over it for a day or so...

I'm wrong.
by Zeus-Boy
Yourself and Dawn are right. You get more purchase in the play your way. A which of a whichness -- sound before sense, or visa versa.
