Words and Rhymes

By: Joe Attanasio

Words are really so much fun

Often meanings more than one

One word the record won

That is a little word called RUN

A tear in a stocking is called a run

A political candidate must run

In a foot race we always run

I am not even close to done

Colors in the wash do run

Five cards in a row is a run

How long does the movie run

Still many more, I’ve just begun

Writing this poem I have “free run”

Like a wild vine can run

My car motor can also run

How many more can be spun

Between two stops is a train’s run

An infected wound can run

Into trouble I can run

I still have a ton

A size or price range is how they run

A risk you sometimes run

To pass a blockade you must have a run

I hope I can keep going, I’m under the gun

A felon on bail might make a run

To manage a business it to make it run

The distance covered when running is a run

The possibilities in my head have spun

An enclosed area for a pet is a run

Scoring a point in baseball is a run

The defensive line must stop the run

Don’t worry I will forget at least one

An unbroken series of events is a run

A computer program needs to be run

In confusion amok we might run

For your comments I will save some

Out of breath, I won’t run

Interest rates from 5 to 6 will run

Before posting, through this I will run

Forty line rhyme is also done
