These are the words that dusk arising has been trying to give away.
anal.... bubonic....crumpet....defoliate....erstaz (ersatz).... fluctuate.... germinate... hump...inseminate....jack....kilo....lumpy.....mentionable......nubile.....oh...pee....queue.....ripple .....stoat... teet....uvuncular ( Avuncular)….vermin....whinney... xylophonic..... yew... zygomycota.
That ersatz bubonic crumpet
Was in a queue before me,
Its whinny like a xylophonic ripple,
With Zygomycota in a queue
Ready to inseminate pee from my anal hump.
The yew was about to germinate,
And defoliate on the stoat
Mistaken for vermin,
Showing its avuncular kindness
Through its teet in a kilo
Of oh so nubile ways.
Only to jack and fluctuate
In lumpy ways so mentionable,
In such poems like this
As each word is rubbished
And becomes the problem of
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia,
Which comes to some
Each time a long word is written.

ANGELA HERE - Im on a late today so just checking on MPS while BRIAN is busy in the Garden ! Love the Piano Duet (amazing instrument) 4 hands are 10 X better than 2. I play duets with my Mama who teaches Piano !
Im always telling would be Poets that *Modern Poetry* is essentially *Any Words arranged in any order* You have done just that with DAs (fine Poet) waste word basket. Thanks for producing a FINE POEM from DAs Flotsom & Jetsom - AMEN ! Brian & I like composing Poems from the *Dictionary of Difficult Dialogue* perhaps tomorrow !

He stood on the bridge at mid-day
the Avon flowed beneath
he dreamed up hippothingameejig
and common sense therefore ceased
twas on the good walk riverside
where the ducks have all gone quakkers
you have to watch the nasty things
or they'll beak you in the knackers
i'm pleased with your use of those words. I thnk you cheated with uvuncular because i found it to be a correct spelling. However, poetic license allows rules to be turned on their head, not that anybody uses rules anymore anyhow.
Walking briskly by the avon
before his face were shaven
was a pure delight
to raise an appetite
and start his coffee craving.
Coffee brewed and drunk
with one mug now inside
the next one sits there waiting
very close to my side
The Avon floated gently
as I walked quickly by
Today I beat my record
and I finished with a sigh
The Avon will be waiting
tomorrow it will still be there
thank you for all the words
both loaned and written today.
Andy
