ABPA - Australian Bush Poets Association

Mausie put the pictures up but my mind just went blank
I could not find a subject in amongst them that would rank.
I picked up the pen then put it down, and thought I've had enough
I have not written for the prompts since that flaming haiku stuff.

I could not think of what to write so I grabbed my fishing bag
I took off for the local creek to see what I could snag.
I spent three hours just wading there thinking what to write
But nothing would come to me in between the fishes bite.

So now I'm here back home again staring at this screen
If I could find some inspiration then I could vent my spleen
I'll just give this months prompts a miss, it seems I'll lost me zing
There was a time when I could sit and write poetry 'bout nothing.

Never mind Bob better luck next time. Lol

I think Bob is saying "bring back the haiku prompts"

I somehow doubt that. Lol

You just did Bob.
