Yuck (quadrille)
I have never been to Yucatan
but I’ve been to Playa del Carmen
I’ve never been to the Yukon
but I’ve camped in Uclulet
I have never played the ukulele
but I have strummed a guitar
as for the Ukraine
haven’t been there either.
In response to the dVerse prompt to write a quadrille using the word “Yuck” which I haven’t used but the sound is there. Thanks to the people at dVerse for making things interesting.
So clever! Love all the matching sounds in this!

Oh this was perfect (as for Ukraine I would limit myself to Kiev)

I really enjoyed the wordplay in this. Although, (and you’ll have to forgive me for this, ’cause I hear a lot of things in fluent Soundtrack) I did hear Three Dog Night struggling to put this to music. Great job!

Ahh yes, thought there was an echo of something in there, subconscious plagiarism! Also maybe , Steely Dan’s Pretzel Logic “I have never met Napoleon/ but I plan to find the time”

Clever word play and it brought to mind an old Three Dog Night song 🙂 Glad you shared your poem!

I like the randomness that evolved from all the variations on yuck. Nice!
