Proofread Before Sending

WriteBeLight

Disregard the text I just sent.

Spoke it wrong, not what I meant.

The words fell in a way unfounded.

Totally the opposite in which it sounded.

It wasn’t that my eyes were blurry.

I point the finger at that DAMNED Siri!

For instance, the word STUCK to spell.

The “F” word appears! What the hell?

You look great, those pants -- all that.

Not in those pants you look really look fat.

I meant to say, “You’re a real smart fella!”

Not that you are a real Fart Smeller!

So be very careful. You have to, indeed.

Before hittting send, you’ve got to PROOF READ!

      I could not agree more. Sometimes when I try to make the correction, it goes anyway! Thanks for reading and the comment.

      Oh yes. Mine alternates between Spanish and English, so I have to be real careful before hitting send. Thanks for the laugh.

        Thanks one must always ROOF PREAD or one can end up saying quite the opposite of what one meant. My cat fell for the roof but she just POPPED on her DRAWS and ran away unharmed ! SHANKS for THARING ~ Brours YIAN !

          I just read all 5? Your first needs editing,the rest are much better and deal with similar themes.This is my favourite so far. Keep 😯

                Never got as far as your vids - seem to have become entangled with a previous incarnation of yours.... Feel a certain empathy with a humorous rhymer..... 🙂

                  Hi Dave! I finally recovered by lost password. I can now post again via this avenue. Hooray!
