Word Challenge Poem!


The votes are in! The words have been chosen! I proudly announce to you-
*insert drum roll here*
THE "WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE WORD?" CHALLENGE!
 
For those of you who don't know, recently on my facebook status, I asked everyone to share their favorite word.. claiming that I would then use ALL of the words in a poem.. the folowing section is the words that I was given to work with.. (and I added definitions to some of the odd ones haha)
 
 
*bumptious- offensively self-assertive, *lackadaisical- idle or indolent especially in a dreamy way, *grace, *ambivalent- uncertain or unable to decide about what course to follow, *savanners, *shenanigans- reckless or malicious behavior that causes discomfort or annoyance in others, *discombobulated, *"the clothes make the man", *potato, *beautiful, *scrumdidilyumpsiouse- really delicious or really marvelous, *supercalifragilisticexpialidocious- atoning for educability through delicate beauty, *pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis- a factitious word alleged to mean 'a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust, causing inflammation in the lungs', *ashla, *platypus, *badonkadonk- buttocks of exceptional quality and bounce, *"Brandon Beckleheimer is awesome"
 
 
 "The Clothes Make The Man"

Once upon a time
In a land nearly far away
A platypus and potato
Went out to play
 
The discombobulated couple
Decided to blow a bubble
It was not very supple
Because they had no lips
 
In a lackadaisical haze
At Savanners they decided to gaze
They found her rather bumptious
And her pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis 
To be scrumdidilyumpsiouse
 
Next in the line of grace
Was Ashla's beautiful face
Her shenanigans were precocious
And caused them to exclaim, "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"
 
They decided to play with an opossum
In their ambivalent phase
He told them that Brandon Beckleheimer is awesome...
Just look at how much his badonkadonk weighs!
 
So they recruited him for their clan
And ironically named it "The Clothes Make The Man"
 
THE END :3
