Rhyming All The Time
He is a monkey, a monkey is he...not so sublime
A grandpa monkey
and a couple of grands see
two grandgirls get to be
monkeys around Grandpa as he
insists right away on calling me,
Jules, and Rae his three
monkeys, climbing a tree
~
Oh, they went down to see
the river to find a bee
in a banana tree
that Grandpa monkey
was talking about as he
wanted to eat some honey
and would sacrifice his baby
to the bees for some sweets see.
~
Naughty Grandpa monkey
Santa won't bring candy
for him, and he is not happy
joyful or full of glee
He doesn't know how to be
a good Grandpa monkey
~
Grandpa, Grandpa the flying monkey!
As Jules is leaving she says, He
is the biggest monkey
in the world you see
He is not getting any candy
from Santa this year, no he
won't cause he is a monkey
A monkey is he! By monkey!
Authors Note: A day in my life. It can be cute for a while, but it gets old. He continues to call even the older grands monkey, his sister, and his nieces, and it starts when they are about two. Jules is 4 and Rae is 9. It is getting a bit old for me now. But occasionally I must share my life with the hubby and this is one of those times.

Hahahahahahahaha this was so cute and funny!
Love the rhyming and it does tell the story of grands and grandparents. Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Oh I loved this. This was so fun, it made me feel as though I was outside running around playing like a child. I love the rhymes and the flow of this, the pace is fast and exciting. Your poem puts me in a good mood. ‘Sacrifice his baby to the bees for some sweets see’ 😂 I love this line so much. Grandpa sure is an annoying naughty monkey, why not call them something sweet instead lol. Again, this was a fun read and I liked it very much 👌🏽👏🏽🤗♥️
