  1. Put off your glove
    And give some love
    Because this painting
    Is just amazing

    Hmm I love writing but rhymes are not my favorites 😉 (especially when English is not your mother-tongue hee).

  2. your giveaway sounds like fun
    i know it is not a pun
    i really want to be a winner
    cause it is no fun being a sinner
    so please let me win
    a print not made of tin
    and I will stop trying to rhyme
    in case this could be a crime!!

    thanks–Ellie

    just looking at them makes me drool
    I cant wait til Monday
    the day after Sunday
    The postman will think i’m a fool !!

  5. I dont want this to degrade,
    in to lyrical lemonade..
    Try to keep it clean,
    we dont want it to be Obscene.

  6. Oh to Scotland, he did sail
    The British Guy known as Bale
    A great journey he did take
    But he did it all for MrG’s Sake
    He traveled far on the Sea
    Searching for MrG
    His travels were vast and long
    All the while singing a song
    “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean, My Bonnie Lies over the Sea, My Bonnies Lies over the Ocean, please save me from Mr.G”

  7. Whats rhymes with gorjuss?
    Well horse and boss and loss.
    not eggs or sheep or banana.
    that would cause a drama.

  8. Now rhymings not my strong point.
    I think thats pretty clear..
    But did you know also.
    Im not that good on speling either..

  9. If English is not your,
    mother tongue bonjour.
    Or Hola erm erm erm..
    I wish languages Id learn..

    So If you dare to rhyme
    in languages so inclined..
    please do share them here..
    We’ll babelfish no fear.

  10. I Googled words that rhyme with Gorjuss, I looked and looked all round
    Hours of searching led me to the response “Sorry no words found”
    I have no idea what to do
    I have no words that rhyme with you
    Maybe we could skip rhyming your name but
    Wouldn’t that be such a shame
    Oh oh I will continue to ponder
    While others continue to wander
    But in the end I think we will all find
    Some words cant rhymed

  11. Je rime
    C’est pas de la frime

    Non pas en Anglais
    Gorjuss

  13. What does rhyme with Gorjuss ?
    I hear people ask
    I havent a clue,
    you’ve set us a task
    To go look on google or yahoo or Ask

    then what should we do?
    go visit the monkeys

    as you can tell

  14. Oddly enough I am watching the Grince
    You know the movie with all the Who’s

    about eggs, ham wockets and snooks

    If you haven’t you have missed so good times
    He is the greatest with rhymes
    Check out his books you will be glad you did
    You will all giggle even if you aren’t a lil kid
    This I do promise, cause I am so sure
    Well maybe you wont if you are a bore
    hehehehe

    But writing about Gorjuss was done with no flinch.

    UGH I need some proof reading before I post

  18. Gorjuss, Gorjuss Pudding and pie
    Made lots of Prints
    that made me cry !

    When that canvas
    Came trough my door
    Of i i ran away into my world .

  19. Oh my Sandy I hear what you say
    Your choice of rhymers makes my day
    But please don’t forget Yogi Bear et al
    His rhymes are quite silly for a cartoon ball
    What does this have to do with Gorjuss you ask
    I will make you decide, that is your task.

  20. My task – I am bemused
    cause Liz what you say – just makes me confused!

  21. There once was a girl called Suzanne
    who lived with her kids and her man
    She loved to draw foxes
    and cats and pack boxes
    And i am her number one fan !!

  22. i love them
    your work it´s so cuteee

    i want to win one print!!

    hugs!

  23. To win this print, Gorjuss
    a poem is a must
    A poet, I’m not
    but I did have a thought
    that a rhyme was a thing I could bust

  24. My mom left for the time being,
    So now im on here, and goodness what i’m seeing.
    My mother just cannot seem to quit her rhyming,
    And now that the Grinch has come on,
    What “wonderful” timing.
    I have to say this is kinda fun,
    But now Sandy’s back…
    So i guess im done.

    =]

  25. here goes –

    My name is Magic Alice
    and this is pretty gallus,
    I dont live in a palace and I’m certainly not from Dallas…..!

  26. Oh Little gorjuss Girl!
    You Make My heart Swirl!

    With Bows In your hair
    You really are so fair

    It is a warm embrace
    to see your little face

    And Oh The Friendly Squirrel
    With his tail all a twirl

  27. Im wondering how to ban Sandy
    Her poems are frankly bewandy..
    I did not make that up.
    its really, Straight up.
    I didnt Google a huge pile of word neeva!!

    ps Sandy Jr… Good Job now keep her off!!

  28. Suzy says Im not a good poet..
    Her support I think I’m owe(t)
    But nay she says no..
    and Im all upset now….
    So Im going back in my closet..

  29. I just cannot compete with you

    Writing in rhyme is not my forte

    But to win a print so Ooooo!

    I’m willing to give it my best, eh!

    (read with a canadian accent lol)

  30. There once was a little girl called Gorjuss
    Who’s hair was full of sawdust
    everytime she picked up a brush
    everthing turned out lush
    and that’s why we all love Gorjuss.. lmao

  31. i am really bad at rhyming
    and i have to work on my timing
    but i absolutely love gorjuss prints
    so i can’t just sit back and eat mints

  32. We had to write a poem when I was a freshman in high school (long ago..lol)
    I still remember it by heart. The eyes may have gone, but not the memory yet.
    It was suppose to be about something meaningful and I chose the environment.

    Beautiful is the sky above and the trees that stand so tall

    It makes me think so much of love to which we all must fall

    The ground is so very brown and soft, it’s grain I love to feel

    And I would like to sit aloft the ground that is so real

    The birds all fly around and sing the songs that are so pretty

    They flap their little feathered wings above the giant city

    Some day there will be none of these and there will be no fuss

    You will know these luxuries are gone because of us.

    I got an A on the poem by the way…..lol.

  33. I am now just reading what MrG wrote
    I think he is the one that needs banning
    Shall we take a vote
    My rhymes are quite whitty and cool
    His a quite dank and drool
    I can tell he is jealous of my whit
    I can’t help his rhymes are shhhhh…
    So I will leave you with this lil deposit
    Lock the door and stay in the closet
    hehehehehe

  34. That surely is a Red Card
    TO keep it clean just isnt hard..
    Now Lorna will appear
    with comments so rude we’ll disssapear.
    And I am as good as The Bard

  35. Mr G tries so Hard
    To give out a Red Card
    To Sandy it must go
    who’s on a high not a Low
    But better a Friend than a foe….

  36. There once was a girl named Gorjuss
    Who painted little girls for us
    She sits and she draws
    We give her applause
    Then we order the tubes with no fuss.

  37. A lil dab of this and a lil drop of that
    A wee lil flutterby and a lil cutesy bat
    Some stripey socks and some lil fox
    Grant is busy packing up a box
    Suzy is busy smiling with a wee bit of glee
    Sandy is somewhere lurking and being sneaky.

    Hugs for all………lol

  38. Gorjuss painted a picture for me,
    When I got it it made me go squee…
    It arrived Saturday
    and I mean flatterry
    Its the best painting that i’ve seen..

    Can I have a prize pleasE??

  39. Red Card?
    MrG is hard?
    When did this become more then PG13?
    You two are just obscene!
    Lorna will be rude?
    Better then being a prude?!
    I think I need to close my innocent eyes
    I am so shamed of you guys
    Let’s keep this a G rated blog
    Let’s not be a hog
    We are all friends and mature friends aren’t we?
    Well most all except the one know as “G”

  40. The ramblings here are crazy
    Doesn’t seem MrG is lazy
    I think I may be a bit hazy.

  41. You know what is really cool to me?
    So much rhymes with G

  42. I want the painting more than you
    So you can just go boo hoo hoo
    I’ll stay up all night
    To win this fight
    If that’s what I have to do

    LOL

  43. Oh But it would be fine
    if she were all mine

    I would hang her high
    up on my wall
    but for everyone to see
    And look at her everyday
    and fill my heart with glee

  44. Stay up all night
    Ugh I give in
    I guess that’s it you win
    Oh ummm wait a second wait a min..
    This giveaway is won by random selection
    Note a vote not an election
    I could go to bed now and still win the prize
    It’s all true I tell you no lies
    The random thingie jigger will have the last vote
    So goodnight all, and that’s all she wrote….

  45. I have to say, Sandy
    It’s been dandy
    To rhyme with you
    and a friend or two.
    I know the prize
    Is selected by random
    Good luck to all
    of the Gorjuss fandom…(It’s a word, it’s in the Gorjuss dictionary)

  46. lol@fandom That’s a great word
    Can’t say it’s one I have ever heard
    I like it even still
    Add it to my dictionary I will
    Now an I speaking like yoda
    hmmm maybe I need a soda
    ok that last rhyme was lame
    but lack of words that rhyme with yoda I blame
    Ugh there I go with the yoda speak once more
    it is past my bed time I am sure
    Ok good evening good night
    See you in the morning I might, lol

  47. Oh one more thing before I go to bed
    This rhyming thing is hurting my head
    I will probably rhyme in my sleep
    I guess it’s better then counting sheep
    Goodnight all it’s been fun
    Oh and this rhyming blog is a heck of a lot better then the backwards typing one, hehehehehe

  48. i think rhyming is harder by far
    than typing backwards, even in a car. 😉

  49. With Sandy I’ll say that I must agree
    Now who sounds like Yoda, oh must be me
    The typing backwards is really hard
    But you know MrG, he’s such a card
    He likes to make our brains start hurtin’
    He has a giggle, of this I’m certain.
    I don’t know how you do it, Suzanne
    How the heck do you put up with that man?
    I’d be laughing so hard from his silly games
    I’d never get my Gorjuss girls in their frames.

  50. Little Mary had a well
    and then one bleak day she fell
    but no rock bottom she did find
    an entire ocean as thick as wine
    down, down, down she sank
    deep inside this endless tank
    she reaches out, for hands she seeks,
    but anchors grow upon her feet
    she sinks into the darkest cracks
    seaweed surrounds her front and back
    no light appears in this dark place
    a saddened look spreads upon her face
    what is to come? she thinks forlorn
    my thread of life shall soon be torn
    but alas dear Mary do not fret
    a pair of fins your soon to get
    and as she entered her deathful state
    inside her heart life had a short time to wait.
    don’t worry about Mary dear ,
    she lives among the fish, no longer in fear
    replacing her legs are rainbow scales
    and on tuesdays she has tea with whales
    a mermaid now you may see,
    is Little Mary, her heart is free.
