Rizz leads to ??? -- a Poem for Friday Writings

      She Had the Rizz 

She was cute, cute as a bugs ear 
She had the rizz to go with it 
She'd wag her tail and boys would fall 

She had the rizz, just waged her tail 
She made her mother cry in joy 
She had been a gift for her mom  

She met a guy who loved her rizz 
She was wooed as she heard his verse 
She called his words kudos for her 

She dreaded day Daddy comes home 
She wondered will boy he approve 
She'd bite her lip and hide the rizz 

She worried too about her boy 
She dreaded their meeting the most 
She lived those thoughts.  Oops here he comes 

She heard this greeting, "Daughter dear, 
my how you've grown, tummy the most"  
      (a sigh between these lines)
  I hope I will be called Grandpa"

Note:  I had this mother rabbit in our backyard in mind when the words were coming out.

   I have quite often used the word "rizz" as a colloquialism in place of "risen" and "arose" to mess with my 'grammar wise' friends.

Ha ha, as you say, it happens. Quite often to rabbits, I'm told.

LOL... I like it more as a rabbit story!! And rizz as colloquialism for "risen" is quite interesting!!!

Hide the rizz. Rizz gone fizz or sizzle.

Rabbits certainly have extra rizz! As their ever increasing population suggests, they are irresistible. 😁

Reminds me of (I think it was a Carol Burnett spoof) where in Mame Peggy Cass as Agnes Gooch sang "I could have danced all night" but in the spoof a very pregnant Agnes Gooch sang "I should have danced all night."

I love it as a rabbit story! Well done, Jim.

First I thought it was about a dog, then about a child...it's a rabbit?

I'll accept "human godmother" but this sort of thing is why I don't refer to people as their pets' "parents," no matter how young the animal is.
