Shivaree … Whoopie

Today’s word is “shivaree” … a mock serenade with kettles, pans, horns, and other noisemakers given for newly married couple; charivari. (Dictionary.com)

Whoopie
Wouldn’t it be fun,
To do something wild,
Like jump all around,
Free as a child? 

To be just as loud 
As a fine shivaree,
With not one problem,
And no worries?

Let loose a little,
Let all the stress go,
It will bring happiness,
So don’t be too slow!
