Title: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Tournk on Wed 24/02/2016 03:05:33
Let's play the rhyming challenge. First, someone gives a word, then the next person tries to make a short poem (or a sentence) with that word. And then, give another word. Oh yeah, it must rhyme (duh!).

For example :

word > light
sentence > I was playing my kite, but I was blinded by the light, I let go and now it's out of sight.

Ok, I'll start.

Next word : Fire

Whenever a song has the word 'fire'
The next line always ends with 'desire'
But I'm not so crap
I'm the king of rap
Oh, who am I kidding...
Desire.

Next word: killing

Farmers: Those who do the tilling and make a killing billing the unwilling.

Next word: Feet.

Okay, so that "fire" took me way too long!

In Hilton Street there is a house, with wooden frames all black.
The lovely dame that lived there once, is never coming back.

Every day she gave out coins to compensate two boys.
But shopping for the Granny Smith won't make the cost of toys.
"Dude, two bucks is not enough", the smaller one then said.
With a pretty nasty grin agreed the older lad.

When Lady Betty did her walk into the lovely morning sun,
the foxy kids sneaked in the house and the tragedy had begun.

Searching through old Lady's junk they came across a jar,
that - standing on a kitchen rack - was out of reach by far.
"That glass is full of dollar coins!" the smaller one assumed,
Some sturdy can beside the stove looked good at first, but quickly they were doomed.

While older boy stood on the can to get the treasure trove,
the smaller tried to hold that thing - and then he hit the stove.
As they got that worthy jar and sacked the coins inside,
the can's content - still on the stove - met a naturally might.

In Hilton Street there burned a house, two boys died in one whack.
The lovely dame that lived there once, is never coming back.
In Hilton Street there burned a house, the event, they say, was dire.
A can of oil, put on a stove, has been the cause of fire.


and to continue:

Have you ever heard the beat of four squaredancing feet?
No? So better go with speed to a dance school meet and greet!

next word : attempt :=

It was horrible to see, how they failed their first attempt,
Tough though they might be, it was a horrid event,


,,this so hard.

next word : Glass

I took a book and sit on the grass
Opened the bottle and filled up the glass

next word: Orange
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Danvzare on Sun 28/02/2016 16:34:03
I was sitting on my stool while eating my orange,
When someone came in and squeaked the door hinge.

I dropped my orange and it went splat,
Causing the juice to squirt all over my lap.

Now I'm wet, and this rhyme sounds vulgar,
I better stop, before I'm actually over.

Next word: Custard
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Sun 28/02/2016 19:07:06
It looked like a whole room covered in custard
When I used the microwave to heat up some mustard

Next word: Fife

Post by: Kumpel on Wed 02/03/2016 00:15:43
A Shire lies between two Firths. The one of Tay and that of Forth. It's Fife.
It once was the garden of Scota, a pharaos daughter, mother of the Gaels and their father Goídel Glas's wife.

Next word: Play

Post by: Jack on Sun 13/03/2016 20:34:42
The world is a complex place
With a lot of things at play
Of all the things you think you've seen
The real shit will come in may

Next word: Insurance

Post by: Kumpel on Mon 14/03/2016 12:09:50
She saw his BMW
and thought "This is my lucky chance",
fiddled with a break pedal screw
and sacked a neat life insurance.

next word: reason
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Sun 10/04/2016 01:20:12
People want to know why all the fuss
Then I guess there's no reason
When Georgie sold his dream to satan
Why we considered it treason

Noisy stomping hippo feet
trembling the savannah.
if I only had a nice
cigar in havana...

> breakthrough

Post by: CaptainD on Fri 15/04/2016 10:36:44
I was racing to make a breakthrough
But had trouble with my brake crew
Got distracted by the lovely lake view
Now I'm surrounded by a hake zoo

>Armadillo

Post by: Kumpel on Fri 15/04/2016 11:32:35
Not as hard as armadill-oh.
Very nice to take a chill, oh.
Stuff some soft stuff in, it will, oh
becoming a dreamlike sleeping pillow!

>Prehistoric
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Fri 15/04/2016 11:40:36
Was messing with this machine
Settings real and metaphoric
Turned out to be a time device
Now I'm stuck in the prehistoric

> Convergence
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Haggis on Fri 15/04/2016 11:45:02
The dinosaurs were prehistoric
Their roars considered stereophonic
But to try and create one would be moronic
Because they'd probably eat ewe [sic]

New word: Gondola

Edit: I was too slow! Dammit.
Edit 2: and my last line probably didn't rhyme... but that did... I think

EDIT 3:

The last two posts suffered a convergence
Which resulted in a problematic divergence
Which new word to use?
It was sure to confuse?
Problem solved by this third edits emergence

New word: Gondola (again)
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Fri 15/04/2016 12:48:13
Wha gwaan me breda
I an I is floating inna gondola
Pushin' de ting is dis sexy gyal

When we started cloning politicians
All people would break out in fits
They now like the Sarahs and Hillaries
But they keep returning the Mitts

> Forthwith

Post by: Kumpel on Tue 19/04/2016 23:39:50
Who's using something like "forthwith"?
Your choice o' word it seems so stiff!
Something even Shakespeare (profession: wordsmith)
worked only twentyfour times with
and this will not be the twentyfifths!

>Slime




Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Wed 20/04/2016 20:33:35
What's this about slime?
That word ain't worth a dime
Come on, gimme something fine
Then hold on tight while I bust a rhyme

> Shudder
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Haggis on Wed 20/04/2016 22:16:39
A mighty fine word is shudder
A good example of onomatopoeia
It's a boat grounding on a reef without a rudder
Or the physical disgust of drinking milk straight from the udder

Edit: oh and the new word is...
> insania
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Sat 23/04/2016 13:59:14
When black is white
All consumed with mania
When wrong is right
You're living in insania

> Bodacious
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Kumpel on Mon 02/05/2016 12:05:35
And here it comes...
Jack, that's really bodacious!
You choose the next word
and the thread becomes fugacious!

> Diary

Diary, I punched a hole in the sky
A bolt fell down and cracked a tree
Now the swans are flying high
Soon I'll join them and be free
Then, dear diary, I'll identify
The next game in line for me

Next word: antimony
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Tue 03/05/2016 13:36:39
Settled in Egypt, they worshipped cats
And stained their sockets with antimony
Then migrated north, to colder lands
There taken over by fearful sanctimony

> Nugget
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Jack on Tue 14/06/2016 12:11:55
The word is too difficult
Hoped you might've dug it
I set the challenge for Babar
But he can't rhyme with nugget

> Saviour

Dusting off your saviour
Forgiving any behavior
Wait... I stole these lyrics from my neighbour
He was a Red Hot Chili Peppiour

Post by: Kumpel on Tue 14/06/2016 16:11:06
next word is? (laugh)
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Haggis on Tue 14/06/2016 16:12:48
Doh!

er...

The next word is Kumpel!
Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Kumpel on Tue 14/06/2016 16:41:09
I see, what you did
and it shows me your wit.
Taking the word kumpel
proves your taste very well.

The results o' last year's MAGGIES
Sweeter than a plate of tasty haggis
A tear o'joy slid down my face
Great chieftain o' the puddin'-race

It's back and forth
Stuck in dreary malaise
Time to step into
The sun's giving rays

Title: Re: Rhyming Challenge
Post by: Danvzare on Thu 16/06/2016 10:13:07
Figuring out a rhyme
That is utterly sublime
And works with codger
Is like trying to find a lodger
Who will always pay on time

Invented yellow journalism
Still a dick hitherto
Really sought his rosebud
And croaked at Xanadu
