The NaPoWriMo prompt today was to write a Clerihew. Not my favorite form. Ranks right down there with the Limerick, but here goes:

And what’s wrong with derrières?

Nothing, except it is so darn hard to get that backward accent over the middle “e.”

They are supposed to be corny rhymes and aren’t supposed to scan, but it was hard for me not to write in rhythm. So, it is a sorta-clerihew.

Clerihew … now there’a a new word for me and now I know.
Is this spurious or just an observation. I am curious to know if the graphic is of her? For if it is? I’ve seen better. What actually jumps out from that picture is the roll of fat above the belt line. Which belies a youthful appearance. I have one too but I try not to draw attention to it; with that type of pant.
Beauty can be just skin deep.
One that changes as we sleep.
If the beauty we wish to keep?
Stay away from garments that cleat …. Cheers Jamie.

No, it is not her. It is a detail from a photo I took in the Ajijic plaza.

I’m with you, Judy. I believe I wrote one to Mr. Clerihew himself one time, letting him know what I thought of the form. 😉 You have done a fun one here, though. 🙂

Okay, I feel validated in my hatred of the form now. What is your stand on Limericks?

Ouch! I have been enjoying the NaPoWriMo more than I thought I would…. I usually use MUCH poetic license on the poems they offer…. but it is still fun!

What is a poetic license for if not to use, right?

That’s how I feel… and it’s necessary for me for these 24-hour deals.
