A little silly poetry for my 100 Word Challenge for Grownups . . . although I guess this is more for kids. Enjoy.
My baby brother’s brabble
with his best friend Bobby,
caused me to foozle badly
doing my favorite hobby.
I dripped the paint all over.
I crumpled all the paper.
The glitter’s now on Rover,
and the room is now in danger.
Mother’s looking grumpy
Father’s looking frazzled
time to hide in my growlery
to avoid more of the brabble.
But hiding is horrendous
with all the noise out there
it makes me want to scream
and pull on someone’s hair.
The solution to the brabble
between Bobby and my brother
is to send away the rabble
and my project I’ll recover.

This is brilliant & there was me thinking everyone would cry & run away! I love the fact that it rhymes (old fashioned I know)
You captured the rough & tumble of childhood AND were able to use some brilliant oldie words! Clever lady!

Thank you. Slightly influenced by “Bubble Trouble” by Margaret Mahy.

You show off! Using the word Brabble three times. Great job and lots of fun.

It was just such a deliciously alliterative word to use.
I liked foozle too, although growlery was a little troublesome.
