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?
Cheese
Nuts
Please
Cuts
Pick
Fruit
Click

DeleteHe asked the clerk for a bit of cheese,
ReplyDeletea bottle of wine and a tin of nuts.
"Perchance some meat. Oh pretty please?"
"Especially of your finest Cuts."
"I'll need a cloth, so here's my pick,"
"and this tray of your choicest fruit."
The register tabulated click, click, click,
then greedily accepted all his loot.
This is how I feel about certain deli counters, although their goods are quite yummy. :P
DeleteGrandpa said, "Say cheese!"
ReplyDeleteWith a mouthful of nuts.
Instead I said, "Pleeeease
Pass the tray of cold cuts."
He said that I could pick,
But should stick with the fruit.
I heard his camera click,
As I chewed my fat loot.
Sounds like grandpa needs to learn some manners. LOL
