Thread Name: The Perfect Couplet
Subject: RE: The Perfect Couplet
Lorenz Hart was fond of couplets;
In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scenery
Just two crazy people together
While you love your lover
Let blue skies be your coverlet
When it rains we'll laugh at the weather
And if you're good
I'll search for wood
So you can cook
While I stand looking
Beans could get no keener re-
Ception in a beanery
Bless our mountain greenery home
Simple cooking means
More than French cuisines
I've a banquet planned Which is sandWiches and beans
Coffee's just as grand
With a little sand
Eat and you'll grow fatter, boy
S'matter, boy?
Huh, huh, atta boy
In a mountain greenery
Where God paints the scenery
Just two crazy people together
How-how-how-how-how we love sequestering
Where no pests are pestering
No dear momma holds us in tether
Mosquitoes here
Won't bite you, dear
I'll let them sting
Me on the finger
Beans could get no keener re-
Ception in a beanery
Bless our mountain greenery
Far from life's machinery
Bless our mountain greenery home
