Shoe............[making Words; Humor] Poem by Bri Edwards
Shoe............[making Words; Humor]
A shoe, by inserting 'r', would be a shore,
littered perhaps with sea shells and more.
A shelf, if we drop the 'sh', would be an elf ……,
perhaps a tiny version of myself.
Add 'f' to an ox and it becomes a fox.
Switch 's' for 'f' and you'd have a pair of sox.
Replace 'c' with 't', and chicken soup will thicken.
Add 'f' and 't' and as will quicken.
Precede ill with 'p', and I've got my pill.
To make liquor, add 's' to the preposition till.
Drop 'ous' from gorgeous and you'll have a ravine.
Without 'ss' a prince would never be a queen.
Add 'ar' to a million dolls and you'll be rich.
Tack a 'b' to your itch and you've got a bitch.

i also noticed that the computer questions 'sox', which is the plural of sock, which is also ok if spelled socks. duh! ! ! ! ! ! !
leave it to John Westlake, a good PH friend to have, to point out that i needed to drop a 'p' from dropp to make drop. i must have had a drop too much liquor from my still. HOWEVER (and i'm not gloating [much], i think he didn't get what i was trying to do with the ar! ha ha. bri :) thanks, John aka Profanisaurus.
