“Toodles”

Some silliness is necessary from time to time.

Poodle, a dog;
not a poop in a puddle or a dump in a pool.
That’s not cool.
Doodle, not doo-doo,
but a hasty drawing done,
dawdling in school.
Oodles, loads or lots of anything,
In particular, a pile of Chinese noodles.
Goodbye. The singular form of “Toodles”
And not too many noodles.

You might already know this is right up my alley! I love silly rhyming fun & you’ve nailed it in an original & playful way. I agree that this website can always use more upbeat stuff to balance out the bleak ones. Thanks for contributing to the hilarity (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

I learn some things from the best. I count you and a couple of others in this genre for inspiration and creativity. Thank you, Margie!! Hope you are well.

From poodle, to doodle, to oodles, to noodles and toodles in ten short lines. A little bit of silly suits me. This is a fun poem and made me smile

I’m glad it could. Just fun to pick up the pen and stay away from hackneyed themes, sketching instead a little comic relief.

Thanks as always, Chris(tine)

Ps. Can I call you either?

Chris to my friends. My Dad always called me Christine when he was cross with me! I answer to both though.
