Dear, dear John,

Before Glenny does it, I will send you a virtual smack.
Where is the rhyme,,, and as for metre,,, well it's all over the place!
(only joking. there is room in the world for all types of poetic writing.) and -no - this is not meant to be a poem .

Stephen, I'm sure you will find your poem. It probably will creep in under the door and tap you on the shoulder at 2.30am. They can be persistent little rascals. Have you tried standing on the back step and calling it?

"poEM... poooo- eeEEEMMMmm"

[Zondrae]

Heather,

isn't 'Google' wonderful.
You have reminded me, I must look up Ukulele chords for Motown songs... wish me luck.

[Heather]

LUCK

You wrote a poem yesterd'y Stephen - or was it the day before that? Whatever. It wasn't that long ago. Have you lost it already? The poor little thing probably got drowned in the cold, cold rain we had.

[Stephen Whiteside]

No, it was a half finished poem, Heather. I was planning to come back to it - a bit like a Vegemite sandwich.

Thank you, Zondrae.

Oh, yes, Heather, you're right about the citrus thing. Just trying it on.

[Heather]

We haven't talked poetry for half an hour. I think we should get back to it don't you?

[Stephen Whiteside]

I reckon Marty would love this thread.

[Stephen Whiteside]

Meh.
