Here’s what to do:
- Write a Quadrille : a poem that is EXACTLY 44 words long, not including the title.
- And the poem itself must include the word “silly” or a form of the word (ie silly, silliness, silly-how).
- Post the poem to your blog AND add the exact URL for your poem to Mr. Linky below.
- REMEMBER to either TAG dVerse in your post, or include a link at the end of your poem that leads readers back to dVerse (https://dversepoets.com). https://dversepoets.com/2020/05/04/lighten-up-a-bit/
Super silly sammy
Super silly Sammy
loved to take a bath.
He loved to use his bubbles
He’d count them using math.
One day silly Sammy
ran out of liquid soap
He tried to use the bar kind
but man, he couldn’t cope.
Bar soap doesn’t bubble.

That was sort of in memory of my son…he was a math wiz. Got a perfect 800 on Math SAT’s. He actually helped his college professor with some trouble in his Differentials class. I don’t even know what Differentials are!

I can imagine that bar soap wouldn’t bubble.

I had another verse but it went over the 44 words, so I just took those to end the poem!

Bar soup lacking bubbles
should be barred, so Sammy
can count his bubbles
using math and water

The last line clangs so well. Brings the poem to a really sharp, sudden stop. A lot like Sammy’s fun.
