Bouts Rimés means "rhymed ends" in French and
is a game or challenge where one person (me) makes a list of rhymed words and
others (you) write the lines that end with those rhymes, in the same order in
which they were given. It was known as Crambo in English and was quite popular
in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Will you help me bring back this hip
historical habit?

ReplyDeleteIgnites a prior
Dream's need to transpire,
But the bur -
Doubt's need to confer,
Sneaky saboteur.
Burning wildly, forest fire.
ReplyDeleteLike no other blaze prior.
Charred remains now transpire.
Prickly mood now as a bur.
A secret hidden none confer.
Wish carnage claimed the saboteur.
