Orange

Orange

A Poem by DecentlyOkayWriter
"

few have the courage to write about such a thing

"
nothing directly rhymes with orange:
well, nothing except borage
so few have the courage
to write about such a thing.
But today, as I ate my porridge,
I realized that it's abhorrent
that we've left it in storage
instead of having fun with wordplay.
As I looked around I found a shortage
of words that meant what I mean, so I had to forage
for another silly word that almost rhymes with orange,
Yet I found not one more. .
except sporange.

Ha-ha! Truly, I enjoyed this. I've wasted way to many brain cells over the years trying to rhyme that word, and only ever came up with "door hinge". Thanks to you, I now have an arsenal.

I've searched and searched and, darn it, you're right.
I love this quirky stuff. It's somewhat like some of the garbage I produce. Please, don't misunderstand. I'm not calling your work garbage...mine, yes.
