Rhyming On The Eighth Of March
Sometimes there is a little too much starch
Author's Note: In My Writing and Yours on FaceBook we rhyme on the eighth of every month. Here are a few from this month. Mine and responses to them.
International Women’s Day!
March 8! Let's celebrate today!
So many special women in my life
I have sister friends, some come with some strife
Many are surviving, while others are thriving
I have Y sisters, who are surviving cancer
And many of us are thriving for sure.
Adopted from my sister - her sisters
I have nieces and great-nieces
That I love to pieces
Recovery sisters and theatre sisters
Sisters, I once worked with and went to school
with. Facebook sisters, and PaDiF comes a pool
of poetry sisters. Today, there are rhyming sisters
Then I have daughters-in-law, daughters
and granddaughters, and great-granddaughters.
I have female cousins and extended family sisters
I have my son's fiancée and grandkids' girlfriends
Let's celebrate every last one of my sisters, okay!
Today is the day!
Hugs and kisses
for my sisses! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Nice way to celebrate
Sisters who are first-rate
You certainly have a bunch
You could take to lunch
My recovery sister
A top of the lister

It might be me and you today.
But that’s ok!
Maybe the others are on their way to
thinking of something fun to say.
I like to rhyme all day long
Sometimes I break out in song.
Then I wiggle and waggle and dance away.
It’s great exercise wouldn’t you say.
Let’s keep on going on and on until tomorrow morning at dawn.
Then we’ll stop and take rest. Those that rhyme are always the best.

Rhyme time
How sublime
You are prime
Meant to rhyme
Enjoy your time

Oh Happy Day
Happy Sunday
Happy Fun Day
It’s Rhyme Time!
It’s the eighth, not the nine!!
Warm day ahead
Get outta bed!!
Spend some time on the deck
It’s going to be nice, what the heck!
Time to let it all hang out
Get outside and give a shout!
It ain’t easy being cheezy
So much better than being sleazy.
Today’s the day to be heard
Come on, join in, don’t be a turd!!
Rhyming on the eighth
Get up, keep rhyming, have faith!!
