Supple Mary: a Bananagram

Supple Mary! 
Supple Mary favors early pumps,
which shoes express key suppleness 
when dating pearly umps.

Supple Mary! 
Supple Mary lofts a lumpy spare
which flat fifth wheel destroys my peel’d banana…
plus my pear.

Supple Mary! 
Supple Mary’s maple syrup jams
she pours from tuns all over buns, 
cream tarts and purple yams.

Supple Mary ask'd a puma, 
“Why do critters die…?”
“Blame Pupy’s Realm, papyrus, elm,“ 
came puma’s (weird!) reply.

Take A Haiku

I lean to my left,
allign’d beneath the moonshine.
Next, nothing happens

Suns sit in blue trees.
I take a step. Another.
After that, it's dark.

And all through the house
it's the night before Christmas.
So...where's Mrs. Claus…?

Adrian Boyer
and Sebastian Boyer, too:
Both boys my grandsons.

Arma virumque:
If at first you don't succeed,
let my people go!

The Russians are coming!
Frankly, my dear, I don't give!
(Russians...? Still coming!)

Be-bop-a-lu-la!
Mares eat oats and does eat oats.
She's your baby now.

To be or not to be...?
Requiescat in pace!
Midsummer Knight's Dream.

When I fall in love,
it's the Japanese sandman.
Oh, Jane: See Dick run!

Edgar Allen Poe;
Flopsie, Mopsie, Cottontail;
Andre the Giant.

Mexico City.
Robert Louis Stevenson:
The bird was a word.

Waiting for Godot:
The few. The proud. The Marines.
Yabba-dabba-doo!

George W. Bush:
No runs, no hits. (No errors...?)
Going...going...gone.

Takes

Take It In Reverse!

Z, Y, X and W...
V, U, T and S, R, Q...
P, O, N plus M and L...
K, J, I, H (as in 'Hell')...
G, F, E, D, C, B, A.  
ABC, but backwards, eh…?  
(Demonstrate some flair, some flex
when next you read your ZYX!)

Take It From the Center!

M, N, L and O, K, P...
J, Q, I, R, H, S, G...
T, F, U and E, V, D...
W and C, X, B...
Y, A, Z. Some Linear B...?
Nope! Just a spiral’d ABC. 

Your Take It From Here!

C, B, A and E, D, J…
P, G, H and T, V, K…
M, N, I and S, X, Q…
F, K, Y and R, O, U…
Z, of course, and W:

___________________.
(What goes here…? One line from you.)

Take It Straight! Then Take It Snak’d!

Straight stroked: A, E, F, H, T...
straight, as well: K, L, V, Z...
straight, too: M, N, X, and I...
W’s straight. And ikewise Y. 
The rest -- B, C, D, G and U... 
plus J, O, P and R, S, Q -- 
contain one curvy stroke (at least). 
(With that, this ABC I've ceased.) 

Take My Order!

First: A, E, I, O,
(and sometimes Y): 
each one's a vowel -- on 
that you can rely. 
And all the rest -- B, C, 
D, F and G...
plus H, J, K, L, M...? 
Plus N and P... 
and Q, R, S, T,
plus X and Z... 
(plus W, the one 
anomaly)…? 
They're consonants. So: now 
your ABC
you know, from vow'ls through con-
sonants. Agree...?
