Converbs

My stories
are rhyme
a dozen.

Not all
that glitters
is sold.

Barking
dogs are full
of spite.

Modesty is
the best policy.

To err is human;
who forgives is
a swine.

Necessity is the
father of contention.

Don’t stock the tote.

Cool water ain’t cheap.

Shave for a rainy day.

Little drops of water,
little grains of sand,
is the stand-in lotion
for a tanned hand!

Who you don't
know won't desert
you.
