Poetry: A *fickle* Birdie... / myLot

Woke up today, a little early Was in a mood, a little surly It went up and down, all the day Folks were afraid, to have their say

Went for a spin Went for a squat Round and round Legs down flat

Tried every trick From books I could nick But mood was a b**** Refused to twitch

Scowling and growling Went on prowling Stumbled upon clowning Where she was howling

Beyond amazed With things all purple Everyone crazed “Ouch” purple-nurple

Paled everywhere When things turned evil Hightailed out of there Screw being civil

Was scampering away With face fierce frown But she saved the day Offered hash browns

“Oh God”, I moaned Sounding so dummy Out loud I groaned “Yummy in my tummy”

That did the trick My lips twitched No more of a prick My mood switched

Now I cheered Howling away Don’t wish to veer From laughing all my day

Curious thing I am Got the truth dug Found with a “BAM” Proud shutterbug

“Oh chucky darn” Mystery unfurled “Yee-haw”, she went “I am a cowgirl”

Often make comments That are *tickle* worthy Lover of invents She is a *fickle* birdie

****** Poetry Original by Yours Truly Dedicated to @rebelann with lots of love.....(Hey! You asked for it......) (Sorry Purple (@purplealabaster)!

for purple-nurple. You know I love you too, right?

I had been asked to use *tickle* worthy and *fickle* worthy into a rhyming style and also how to use both of them into sentences. It took me five days to come up with this... But I finally did..... Thanks!!

@Daljinder *tries to decipher the code* ok so you were embarrassed, then happy then...ok wow that's where I can't work it out lol Whistling because....You're trying to take the focus off the situation and don't know how to react?....then hiding? and then you turn into Satan?
