Overheard At The Drinks Party

This was a class exercise - we were asked to produce 5 -line verses with a single rhyme scheme in each.

Silly, but fun!

Oh God, is it today?!

I thought I said, Come on Saturday

Where’s the chocolate parfait?

I need to fix the canapés

No thanks…I’ll do it my own way!

May I introduce you two?

Polly, this is Mr Drew

He organised the Donkey Do,

The concert, AND the trip in June

Oh, don’t go,…he’s a banker too!

Hello there, dear, what’s your name

Can’t remember? What a shame!

Come dear child, sit by me, pray

Now, as I was about to say

Oh dear, she’s gone and gone away!

Hi man! You’re looking cool

Didn't we meet at boarding school

Wanna come and shoot some pool?

Got a smoke? Ashtray, you fool!

C'mon mate – you know the rules!

Dearest May!

Can’t stay

Can’t pay

What you say?

Hooray?
