Can you buy them things online - how lovely this is.

Well done Heather. Great to see you posting this Neat concise little piece.

You've been babysitting again.

I was waiting for one more verse to finish off ?

Seems to sort of hang ?

Bob

You'll get hang. It doesn't need anything more.

Thanks Maureen. Some things are priceless and you simply can't buy them.

You're always wanting more Bob. The last line sums it up.

Not babysitting Neville, this one was inspired by a friend.

I only wrote one poem last year so hopefully I'm off to a good start - it's a start anyway. As Leonard Cohen said, "I don’t think you can write novels on the road. You need a certain stability." Same with poetry I think.

Heather

Cryptic clues Neville ? what ya trying to say ? spit it out !



Bob

Fixed the typo Heather.


Not cryptic Bob, that's just a saying.

If it needed any more Heather would have put it in. I think that if the reader reads Heather's poem in less than two minutes they are going too fast and then will miss the completion. Poetry is not about ' once upon a time....blah blah blah bah ...............they lived happily ever after. Amen. Next

Does the size 150 next have a meaning ?


Bob

Gotcha Neville.

Two minutes might be a bit slow for this one Neville, you'd start to sound like a Queenslander! Maybe one minute - twice!
