Frequently, I look on with dismay
Barely perceiving what they’re trying to say
Totally overwhelmed by adverbials fronted
Often, making me feel my grammar is stunted
Regularly, they precede an action to follow,
Their artificial use, I find hard to swallow
Frequency, place, time, or manner
Rapidly throwing them in, can make you stammer
Whatever happened to simple nouns and verbs
In our grammar?

The accursed adverbs. But they do serve a purpose, and without one a sentence might read like a cuppa without sugar (but that’s not disastrous, for I don’t take sugar!) 🙂
