Okay my friends come here and listen up;
I'll try to teach you how to place your words
to mimic flights of Angels and of birds
and not the antics of a playful pup!

Its best if you can write the way you speak
and let the accent fall where it is meant.
Dont force it by plac ing it dif fer ent.*
By bending words sometimes you make them weak.

*You see what I just did; I made you stumble.
I should replace the word 'force' but I won't.
Or do you think I should replace the 'don't'?
To find just the right word will make you humble.

I watched Hyndes task bring on the puzzled faces
and then I saw a trace of something more
from those across the pond whom we adore
They put their accent marks in different places!

When you are through then open your thesaurus
and decorate your work with sounds that sing!
Now praise yourself for all the joy you'll bring
and give a wink to this ol' dinosaurus!

Loved it! Such a perfect way to stress your point.

Wish I had thought of it...

Reading the title on the main page I was expecting something about Little Boo Peep or a recipe for Shish-ka-bobs. :)

I was one of those puzzled faces looking on, lurking, rather afraid to try it ( the hyper challenge). You make some great points in such a fun way!! and the title is very witty, very sly indeed ;) good job, Lady Boo xoxox
