Hey, hill folk call it beating around the bush. Nother polysyllable monster, quite
interesting, and presented in rhyming couplets...fivers.

Thanks very much for the kind review. Some of these words are a challenge, to put it mildly. Craig

Don't circumbilivaginate-are you talking to Trump? I like your direct advice and agree with you short, succinct and profound write; thanks for sharing.

That's a crazy word and I love it. I've already forgotten it, but still.

Terrific poem, Craig. You didn't beat around the bush at all, just got straight to the word.

Love it!

Gloria

This is super, Craig. I know lots of people who circumbilivaginate. I call it, "dancing on the head of a pin." I want to say to them, "spit it out, already--stop beating around the bush." My aim in my writes is clarity. Sometimes I read stuff and I haven't a clue what the write is about. I pray that I always write clearly and, if not, that someone tells me. Marilyn

Hi Craig!

This one made me laugh! Can you say that word three times really fast? lol I'd love to hear that... record it and send it to me! lmao

This is a fun one! I'm glad to see you are expanding your vocabulary ;)

Re saying it three times, I'd rather not - and I'll just leave the comment there ;-)

I'm greatly enjoying making the acquaintance of all these words I will never again in my lifetime have cause to use.

Thanks for the lovely review, Kim - Craig

A very well-written poem and an enormous word 'circumbilivagination' to tell and not to talk in circles but get straight to the point. Time is of the essence and no one have time for long around the Bush conversations.

Hey, Craig,

I read through this poem and I think I really like this word. Mind you I'm a bit narrow-eyed in if there's an insult between the letters from the word's creator, with half of the word in my ear vaginate... and the implying instances not straight forward. But there's something about the word. It's one that feels right in my mouth. Wait. It feels good speaking it? It... nevermind.

The poem lines up with the word very well--short, to the point with the pace an even tempo, pleasing. I got a smile and think I'll keep the word as a word of the day.

circumbilivaginate
circumbilivagination


Gha, if only I'd be able to remember how to spell it.

Nice job with this, I enjoyed.

Haha Turtle - well, it certainly is a mouthful ;-) I couldn't publicly admit to the mental images the word conjured up here - I do wonder what they were thinking. Thanks for the great review - Craig

With the phrase "to beat the bush" and a word ending in "--vaginate" , I was wary of where we were headed with this one. I actually had to go to three dictionaries to find it. Seems like an N is missing to make the idea of NAVIGATING more pronounced.

Yes, it's a most strange word, which conjures up some probably unintentional images (one would hope) in my mind. Many thanks for reviewing - Craig.
