Rhymes Have I

Rhymes Have I - Robert Merrill/Adele Leigh

Rhymes rhymes

Sweet rhymes fine rhymes

Rhymes fine rhymes sweet rhymes have I

Sly rhymes wry rhymes meet rhymes have I

To a world too prone to be prosaic

I bring my own panacea

An iota of iambic

And a tittle of trochaic

Added to a small amount of onomatopoia

Lays that sing with rhymes have I

Tupleis that ring like chimes have I

Happy rhymes like money makes you sunny

Spicy rhymes like virtue can hurt you

Learned rhymes the camel's a mammal

And others very various

On matters multifarious

Like beard sheared burnoose

Loose stairs prayers musk kiosk

Minerat and parapet and many more

That I'll beget in time

Rhymes have I rhymes have I I have rhymes

Rhymes fine rhymes true rhymes has he

Rhymes bright rhymes new rhymes has he

Thoughtful rhymes

Like Learning leads to earning

Truthful rhymes

Drinking stops your thinking

Helpful rhymes

Sinning is thinning

And others miscelaneous

On matters more extraneous

Like crutch clutch look

Hook vagrant

Fragrant dervish curvish hone

Won caravan Afghanistan

Dromedary very hairy

Very hairy very sorry

Songs of sense and pertinence

In reverence to all events and times

Rhymes have I rhymes have I

Rhymes has she

Rhymes has he

Rhymes have we rhymes

Have we we have rhymes
