Nictitate
by Rachel Hoyt
Guys who nictitate
think themselves to be great,
and often stay out late,
looking for a date,
winking at gals who look great,
hoping if they wait,
one will take the bait,
and fall for the flirt who nictitates.

Every week I
rhyme and define a new wacky word.
Come on over to indulge your inner
nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've
heard.
Well, I guess they could slowly wean themselves off the habit by wearing nicitate patches over their eye. You know, like a pirate ;D
ReplyDeleteLOL! Nictitate patches. Hehe. I think I'll promote those for Talk Like a Pirate Day. It is coming up soon you know. Race you for the patent? :P
DeleteI'm in for talk like a pirate day! Now to find a patch ;-)

DeleteThat's a real whacky word, Rachel! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting, Rimly! :)
DeleteDear Rachel,
ReplyDeleteI swear...your words get wackier by the week! (lol) My initial reaction was this had something to do with nicotine...boy was I wrong. Can you see me nictitating at you...is it having any effect? Hahaha! Thanks for sharing.
How Fortunate I am...
Alas, your nictitation only sends me to giggling. :) I'm glad you think they're getting wackier by the week!
