So When" it actually resembles a "Swollen Log".<br>It's NitroJohnny he wishes to flog<br>while he's jammin' to the Troggs<br>Squeeling not like a pig, but a hog!<br>

Little Bo Peep has lost her hammerhead sharks,<br>They're eating children in pools in neighbourhood parks!<br>when we told the little disobeyers "don't stay out after darks!"<br>cause they'll stir the dogs and all they do is barks.

if it says Libby's, Libby's, Libby's, on the label, label, label...<br>it'll get shoved behind the steak and beer on my table, table, table...<br>it would brought out by my maid, Hazel, Hazel, Hazel..........<br>Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn about canned veggies said Clark Gable, Gable, Gable

Poet and don't know it?<br><br>Okay, let's see how this rolls here, or if it rolls at all... We've done progressive stories before, and those were pretty fun. This is somethingthat my sister and two cousins have been doing for several years now, via email, and we've had a lot of fun with it; so I figgered I'd give it a tryhere. Here's how it works...<br><br>I'll post the first line of a poem. The object is to have a four-line poem, all rhyming. So say I post:<br><br><font color="#00CC00">groggerbug had this really lame notion</font><br><br>The next person copies that line, pastes it into a reply, and adds a second line:<br><br><font color="#00CC66"><font color="#00CC00">groggerbug had this really lame notion</font><br></font><font color="#0000FF">to walk to the beach and spit in the ocean<br><br></font><font color="#000000">So the next person copies both lines, pastes them into a reply, and adds a third line:<br><br><font color="#00CC00">groggerbug had this really lame notion</font><br><font color="#0000FF">to walk to the beach and spit in the ocean<br></font></font><font color="#CC33FF">ready to expectorate, he was stopped mid-motion<br><br><font color="#000000">And again, the fourth person copies the three lines, pastes them into a reply, and adds the great fourth-line punchline!<br><br><font color="#00CC00">groggerbug had this really lame notion</font><br><font color="#0000FF">to walk to the beach and spit in the ocean<br></font><font color="#CC33FF">ready to expectorate, he was stopped mid-motion<br></font></font></font><font color="#FF0000">by a bikini-clad babe who needed help with her lotion<br><br><font color="#000000">So that's all there is to it! Then someone else can start off with a new first line. It helps if you can choose ending words forthe first line that are reasonably "rhymable".... and it is a family site, so try to keep it... ahem... at least reasonably on the cleanside....<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif" alt="image"><br></font><br><font color="#000000">Okay, so here goes with the first line..... have some fun with it!<br></font><br><font color="#000000">Osgood had a most unusual thing he did whenever he ate</font></font>

He'd eat the bread (or toast) and part of the plate.
