On a language blog, surely we strive To keep the value of language alive! In a trio there's three, And that's okay by me, Plus, my Blind Boys CDs don't say, "Five!"

The pastor, whose background was Haitian, Awoke every day with inflation. Steady continuation Of Platonic relation Was causing him great consternation.

When an inner-pedant humanist (whom we will dub "Gus") Said "the English language is beyond them" (Gus meant "us") But give the devil his due do dew Our English can be fun too to two Who wants a serious language if it can't be hilarious

Willy's selfhood for years had stood proud, You could say he stood out from the crowd. He was more than elated When that semaphore bated, Though his new bride was crying aloud.

Before Columbus went, a Chinesse gent went, Without any map or compass accompanyment. Why his ship -the American Express Was true to course, he'd proudly confess "I always orient away from the Orient"

Well, I had suggested "orient + express" as a continuation of the Hercule Poirot theme, but then I remembered that the original rules were that the two words were supposed to be the first and last words on an open page in a dictionary. Clearly, orient + express could not satisfy that condition.
Not that it matters really since this is all in fun.

Can't distinguish a king from an ace Said the joker while hiding his face It's all up to the thief To provide some relief I'm struck down by this quite absurd race.

Another year and I can't take the strain of the season we call "hurricane" Perhaps I will hover In bed - under cover And come out when the weather is sane.

I hired a furniture mover Who sucked like a thousand-buck Hoover. He trod ev'ry puddle; He'd drag, drop, and muddle. Now I'm off to buy good stain remover.
