Fishing and Kissing and More
Abstract, sound, or nonsense poetry?
Abstract Poetry is a form of poetry that is more about how sounds, rhythms, and textures evoke emotions than about the actual meanings of words. Writers Digest, Robert Lee Brewer
I was thinking abstract or sound, then I may have moved into nonsense?
fishing and dishing
I was wishing
to know who was fishing
next to me and kissing
I was sure missing
the kissing and dissing
going on next door
I abhor poor, poor
me, I’m looking for shore
it is such a bore
why should I stay for more
~
my husband chews snuff
boy it is rough
no kisses for me I say enough
the nicotine is too much
and whatever else is in that stuff
enough is enough I say
and what about you today
enough for anything on this day?
how about enough of this stuff hey!
Okay then, have a good Wednesday!
~
Tick tack toe
I’m going out to hoe
My garden has a few weeds
time to plant a few more seeds
in the river today we will find reeds
who needs
reeds
clarinet players
then there are others!
~
fiddledee, faddledee, doe
yes, I can throw the dough
well, maybe not the cash
I can put on a sash
and the cash I will stash
well, I don’t really know
confusion is my game, no?
time to sow, blow a kiss and go!

Gosh, I love this, so much charm in it this: I was sure missing the kissing and dissing going on next door. 💕
I'm going out to hoe 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 That was my favourite line. It made me laugh so much!
So engaging read.
Very good job on the rhyming throughout the poem. It was fun to read.
Your talent is very uncommon and a realistic one! "boy it is rough no kisses for me I say enough" haha, loved that line.
