rolled all over

I rhyme tepid with vapid,
meanwhile, I try to
get rid of smell that is acrid
ah well, you better tell me-
does bane go with sane?!
or is it sane that is bane
does that work better?
acrid was what you bid
try what you may-
tepid wine tastes so vapid!

Posting a distorted NaiSaiKu after aeons, I think!

  7. I enjoyed this, and you've given us another new form to try. I'll never remember that name: naisaiku - Japanese, I presume.

  8. Gautami,

    Read 3 poems now. It is true we bond with fellow bloggers and miss them if either can not visit due to any reason. This one is very good play with words of opposite / similar sense.

    Take care
