PLATEX WOMAN

What with middle age spread
And the force of gravity
Time has played havoc
With my once sylph like body
My hour glass figure is no more
Alas it’s more like a barometer case
And my “cross your heart” bra
Is more of a “cross your waist”

GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS

Suzy the fluesy is fun in the Jacuzzi
Jude the prude is really rather rude
Tarty Marti is a must at a party
And silly Lily is a very frisky philly

Slender Brenda is really very tender
Whacky Jackie likes to smoke her backy
Crazy Daisy is perhaps a little lazy
And trendy Wendy is extremely bendy

Plain Jane is certainly not mundane
Immoral Coral has a tendency to quarrel
Handy Candy is often rather randy
And mean Jean is frankly just obscene

Steady Teddy is almost always ready
Bobbin Robin can get me throbbin
Shirty Gurty so easily gets flirty
But it’s rosy Rosie with whom I get cosy

ALL HALLOWS EVE

I hide behind the sofa quivering in fear
Now the witching hour is near
The curtains are drawn tight
And I’ve turned off the lights
The TV volume is way down low
I sit and cower it its feeble glow
Then comes the knock upon the door
And I curl up quivering on the floor
My heart is pounding my breath is shallow
My mouth is dry it’s hard to swallow
On all hallows eve I live in mortal dread
But not of monsters or the un-dead
The fear that turns my heart to stone
Is Trick or Treaters knowing I’m home

OOPS! This isn't poetry, I guess it was supposed to go here!

ATTENTION ALL CYBERDOSHERS

Got my post, nice to see,
Read of the challenge, what's it to be?
Shona Prophett, showin' a loss?
Does anybody really give a toss?

Have to admit, if this is true,
I could be tempted, so could you,
Wouldn't it be cool, wouldn't it be funny,
If we all took part and we all made money?

Check it out, then let me know,
If you're taking part, I'll give it a go.

A NIGHT WITH A FIT BIRD

I pulled a girl on Saturday night
And when we were getting at it
She rasped, moaned and thrashed about
And I don’t mean just a bit
Well I thought I was a great lover
That I have to admit
But alas she was an asthmatic
Having an epileptic fit

Just checked and 'Glop' can be a pot of anything thrown in and cooked together, like a general mish mash of left overs, so what about, 'a blue stew'?

I am looking for rhyming riddle for "an azure glop" and a rhyming riddle for a chilly mushroom. Here is an example "a purple gorilla is a "grape ape". A sad fruit is a "glum plum" A thief in a library is a "book Crook".

I can't seem to find rhyming riddle for "An azure glop, or "chilly mushroom" for chilly mushroom i thought maybe "cold mold" and azure glop i know glop means like sloppy food being served? anyone know?

HARRY POTTER AND THE WITCH WITH AN ITCH

When everyone was having fun
In the holidays, poor lonely Harry
Had to return each time
To the bosom of the family Dursley
As he waited for word from Sirius
He was always at a lose end
All his school pals and teachers were busy
And his owl was his only friend
Hermione was getting a little ginger
Where the Weasley family dwell
Riding Ron like a nimbus
Until he screamed out “bloody hell”
While Neville was with young Ginny
Who grabbed his wand and made him faint
Madam Maxime was spanking Hagrid
And covering his genitals in paint
Professor McGonagall morphed into a cat
And curled up on Dumbledore’s lap
Malfoy wore Madam Pomfreys underwear
And played with his old chap
Seamus played with Cornish pixies
And goblin’s had a different meaning
Pomona Sprout had meat and two veg
As Wood gazed smiling at the ceiling
Unwanted Harry sat alone in his room
Pining for his young love Cho
And was finally forced to seek solace
Where the sad and the lonely go
He sought out the purveyors of sex
Looking for some company
At a place frequented by Filch and Snape
On a street called Ven Ally
But he contracted the vilest irritation
On his most intimate patch
After consorting with a cut price bludger
At a place called the “Golden snatch”
If he had not been so cheap
And not chosen a dirty little witch
He would have had his carnal pleasures
Without catching the dreaded quid itch

DR. NO, NO, NO

In 2008
The next James Bond movie theme
Is to be performed
By Amy Winehouse it would seem
I heard her described
As Shirley Bassey with tattoos
Perhaps more accurately she’s
A tatty Shirley Bassey in my view

PICCADILLY PHILLY

We stood on a busy London street
One bright warm summer day
When a girl in a skimpy top
And very short skirt came our way

The girl was walking towards us
And she caused every head to turn
Men and women, young and old
Mens jaws dropped and women looked stern

She was quite an attractive girl
Not a stunner or a movie star
But not worthy of all the attention
She was just a little above par

The reason soon became apparent
As we noticed when she passed
Her skirt hem was tucked in the waste band
And she was completely bare arsed

A MOTHERS TALE # 2

I was out shopping with the kids one day
And we stopped for lunch at a burger place
We had just begun to eat our burgers
When a smell papered that I couldn’t trace
It was so bad that I couldn’t eat
I checked the baby and she was clean
"Johnny, have you had an accident?"
"No mum," Johnny replied. “Not me”
The smell got worse and I cursed
As I didn’t bring spare clothes with me
"Are you SURE you didn't have an accident?"
"No mum," Johnny replied.” not me”
I just KNEW that he must have had an accident,
Because the smell was really smarting
"Are you really SURE you didn't have an accident?"
he leaped up like he was departing
Dropped his pants and spread his cheeks
And said "see mum, I was only farting!!"

A MOTHERS TALE # 1

While in queue at the bank one afternoon
My toddler decided to act the loon
Tired of the queues disapproving glare
I managed to grab firm hold of her
I told her if her bad behaviour did not finish
"Right now" then she would be punished
To my horror to my face for all to see
She loudly began to threaten me
With narrowed eyes and furrowed brow
"If you don't let me go right now,
I will tell Grandma what I saw alright
When you kissed Daddy's pee-pee last night!"
With all the dignity that I could muster
I tried to show no sign of fluster
In deathly silence with all eyes on me
I headed quickly for the door to flee
As I Dragged my daughter though the door
I heard laughter erupt in a hilarious roar

LUNCH TIME IN THE CAFETERIA

At a catholic school at lunch time one day
As The children queued up in an orderly way
The first thing that confronted the pupils
On the end of the counter was a large pile of apples
By the apples a nun had written a note saying
"Take only ONE because God is watching."
as they made their way along the counter
The canteen rang out with childish laughter
Chocolate chip cookies stood in a large pile
With a label which made them all smile
A child had written a note for the pupils,
"Take all you want. God is watching the apples."

THE TRUTH ASTROLOGERS WOULD’NT TELL YOU ABOUT GEMINI

Gemini’s are quick and intelligent thinkers
They are also known to be heavy drinkers
Liked only because of their sexual persuasion
They bend over backwards on any occasion
Gemini’s never seem to find the time to relax
But do for committing unnatural sexual acts

MINISTERIAL BUFFET

The Deputy PM, Two jags Prezza
Is an exceedingly portly geezer
Yet all the buzz of Westminster talk
Is not his fondness for pies of pork
It seems he no longer favours pies
But much prefers breasts and thighs
Though not the ones from KFC
But the ones he finds on his secretary

RIDDLE OF THE SANDS - NOT the Erskine Childers version.

Is the sea level rising, is there global warming?
Or is it simply a case that new islands are forming?

"Eureka, Eureka!" Archimedes did yell,
When he suddenly realised he'd something to tell.

The man jumped in a bath, and the water did rise,
But really and truly, was that a surprise?

It is obvious to me, is it obvious to you?
It doesn't take a genius, to see that it's true.

If you shut people in a room without ventilation,
Then temperatures rise, windows drip condensation.

There's less and less space, yet there's heat radiating,
There's less and less air, and no water evaporating.

It's a greenhouse effect, easily resolved,
It's a natural problem, easily solved.

Open the windows, open the door,
Avoid the flood that'll appear on the floor.

Our earth is enclosed by the ozone layer,
And because of a hole, there are many in prayer.

But wouldn't it be feasible, or couldn't it be true,
That the hole in the Ozone may be our only rescue?

Tons of sand and gravel pumped onto the seabeds of Dubai,
May be one more reason we're waving shores goodbye!

============

They're building a brave new world out there! Check out the Palm Islands - Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira, reported as the "self-proclaimed eighth wonder of the world", and then check out 'THE WORLD ISLAND'. Truly amazing, but one HAS to wonder how all this oceanic construction affects the rest of the world when added to the millions of square miles of already 'reclaimed' land. It's some food for thought, at least.

EDDIE'S THEORY OF RELATIVE PROSPERITY

The rate of inflation,
To me, is unstable,
Despite what they say,
Two percent is a fable!
I juggled their figures,
The best I was able,
And then I decided,
To construct my own table.

Relatively speaking,
(I say tongue in cheek),
With a minimum wage,
To take home each week,
The low paid workers,
Should soon hit a peak,
Strength to the workers,
More and more do they seek.

Fancy brand names and holidays,
Hi-tech computers and cars,
Spending minimum wage,
Like some high earning stars,
The highlight's the weekend,
Playing bingo in bars,
No thoughts of the future,
Not even pennies in jars.

I can't be bothered pursuing this rhyme any further, so here are the calculations for anyone out there who is remotely interested.
My suspicion is that minimum wage and the supposed 'low' rates of inflation are just rat traps, brainwashing the less wealthy into believing that things have got better and, if not, you just MIGHT win the lottery. Loss of belief in this pathetic system is 'cured' by a slow conditioning process involving prescribed (or otherwise) addictive medication.
But don't despair... WE MAY ALL BE MILLIONAIRES ALREADY!
The riddle is in figuring out how to keep it for ourselves. Suggestions welcome!

I started my figures from the 1980's, but feel free to estimate from further back (or from more recently) and you'll soon get the picture, bearing in mind that the Government will probably raise the retirement age to 70, cock up another budget and still won't ever be able to tell us where the extra billions went from ever-increasing tobacco taxes and sales of the national gold stock.

Although we live under a Labour Government at the moment, my figures are fairly conservative!

Age 20 - 30 = 10 years @ £30/week rent = £15,600.00
Age 30 - 40 = 10 years @ £50/week rent = £26,000.00
Age 40 - 50 = 10 years @ £70/week rent = £36,400.00
Age 50 - 60 = 10 years @ £90/week rent = £46,800.00
Age 60 - 70 = 10 years @ £110/week rent = £57,200.00

TOTAL SPENT ON RENT ALONE DURING A BASIC WORKING LIFE = £182,000.00

ADD to that everything else that must, BY LAW, be paid during your working lifetime AND the basic cost of food, clothing, utilities and fuel, PLUS rearing kids, college/university fees, cars, holidays, communications and entertainment etc, AND THEN add on the festive/celebratory spending that we are all obliged to do EVERY YEAR ...
My theory is this; as long as the general working (or not, as the case may be) population can be kept content in the belief that they may win the lottery, then the masses will comply without question.

I CHALLENGE YOU TO DENY THAT MY THEORY IS RELATIVE TO PROSPERITY!

RHYME AND PUNISHMENT

I like to write an ode or rhyme
It’s a fun way to pass the time

After I've done A, B, C and D,
I'll cross the water, for all to see.

You'll soon realise that I'm no fool,
By applying the confusing FAR CASH RULE.

For on 10th September, that's where I'll be,
Watching the big birds fly over me.

WHERE IS BUNNY?

Backwards and forwards, this name is the same...

From here, in my ear, I can hear...

The ebb and flow of wet winter weather!

Three boxes are labeled apples, oranges, apples and oranges. Each label is incorrect. You may select only one fruit from one box. No feeling aroung or peeking premitted.
How can you label each box correctly? Hint: fruit is not an answer.

Thanks

I’ve been throwing some poetry at the internet
And some of it's beginning to stick
Osmosis poetry also known as ……
a four letter word that rhymes with spit

Well! I do declare!
Is there someone else in there?
Paul Curtis arrived!

===========

It's amazing what one can do with only seventeen syllables!

===========

Is HAIKU the opposite of LO-BULL?
I've often wondered that;
So I thought I'd ask...

Excuse me, Sir, I cried,
And then asked my question...

But, the teacher in my writing classes,
Peering over his milk-bottle glasses,
Simply shook his head and sighed.

MR.WHIPPY R.I.P.

An ice cream man has been found dead
Lying on the floor beneath a shelf
Covered with hundreds and thousands
Police say he may have topped himself

WHY WHY WHY?

A girl goes to the doctor in some distress
What’s the problem or do I have to guess?
I keep singing the green, green grass of home
That sounds to me like Tom Jones syndrome
Is it very common to sing the songs of a star?
Well "it's not unusual" to tell the truth Delilah

The Riddler

Just as I wake to greet the day,
The Riddler comes to have his say,
Before my eyes can even see,
He says, "This my riddle be..."

If without light the day is night,
Why, then, can you see?
Presence of night or absence of light,
What the difference be?

Without the light, you call it dark,
When it's dark, you cannot see,
Your eyes are closed, there is no light,
How, then, can you see me?

In dark of night, with inner light,
The body sleeps through spirit's flight,
When day does break, with rising sun,
Then once again, the two are one.

I'm the best there is,
I'm the best there'll be,
For there isn't a person,
Who can out-riddle me.

Derum, he tried it,
But failed miserably,
He sulked for months,
Whilst I danced with glee.

Many have challenged,
Many have failed,
The world's best riddler,
Eddie Elwood is hailed.

If you have what it takes,
To pit wits against mine,
I'll take on your challenge,
Be it line after line.

But don't be surprised,
Or shocked to the core,
Because once you are beaten,
I'll still look for more.

I'm the best there is,
I'm the best there can be,
There's never been a riddler,
Who out-riddled me!
