Thanks to Chelsea Ann Owens for the tag to continue this Rory inspired epic.
The Mysterious Case of Twas Not Twas!
I am sure, well pretty sure NO, of course I am sure!
Twas not twas, twas not there before!
And yet, here I am looking upon it with widened eyes…
This thing that twasn’t, and yet now it twas a surprise!
Paula of Light Motifs II‘s Addition
When I told my friends what had transpired,
They laughed and said I must be a liar,
For things like THAT surely are not real;
Then it came back and said let’s make a deal.
Fandango of This, That, and The Other‘s Addition
So it wants to make a deal?
Well that does have some appeal.
I asked it, “Whatsit all about?”
And that twas when it started to shout.
Christine of Poetry for Healing
Yes, whatsit all about Alfie?
Do you have bats in your belfry?
Was it this or was it that?
I know ‘twasn’t tit for tat
Kristian of Tales of the Mind of Kristian
Are you following all this closely?
What’s that you say? Mostly?
Well then, you’re far cleverer than I,
When you inherit lunacy, embrace the sky.
Following your twas, I could not twist,
Did you all think, that I had missed?
Betwixt and between all of that,
I am quickly passing your baton back…
What to say here
What to do
I am lost
So now I think its going to be down to you
This craziness has gone on for far to long
The time has come to make some sense out of this song
If I hold this end of this insanity and you tug from your end
Do you think we can straighten it and make it look out of bend
I found that thing lying in the dirt,
All I can say is that it hurt,
What came first? The chick or the egg,
Thank goodness it didn’t come out of my head!
In Yorkshire we say a lot of Twas
We also talk a lot of Twaddle
In Germany they say es war
Which makes more sense by far
Yet Germans, though great when it comes to cars,
Sound more like mad choking when, “Ist es war.”
So; whether twas twixt, twain, or even twat
I think all this thinking is overwrought.
Ruth of RHScribbles (that’s me)
Overwrought, indeed it ’twas
‘Twas not ’twas, just becuz
Becuz it twas, and twas it not
Not becuz, surely not?
Now! Who’s up for adding the next four lines? Paul, I choose you!
Very very cool
