The Third Rhyme
She rhymed a word yesterday
Then stared at it for hours;
She wanted to celebrate in some way
So she bought a dozen flowers!
She rhymed another word today
And was amazed again for hours;
What else could she do but
Go buy another dozen flowers!
She already had a perfect plan for tomorrow
When there was supposed to be rain showers;
She would rhyme her third word then go outside
Where she could dance with her flowers in the showers for hours!
