The Ballad Of Karen the Chook

Touché ya got me Dave. You are too kind though I\'m not always polite just ask my wife. I do believe in being polite to poets to encourage an art that is not as popular as many others like music. I would hate for someone to be discouraged from writing because of me. How would you like to be a person that discouraged a future Shakespeare. Loved your poem Dave and feel honored that my name should end up in it my friend.

You now need a spell checker to check the spell checker has got it right.
Strap up for your journey, destination unknown, sat nav not working, the world is nigh.

That sounds like what my beloved late daddy used to say, until sometimes I wonder whether I should take a different route so I can enjoy the journey instead of chafing while I look for the destination. You don\'t want dyslexia, I have it. It\'s nasty. I carry whiteout because of it. As for writing poetry, study examples of the form you desire to follow and practice until you too can write in the chosen form. Or?
Beautifully rendered with excellent good humor and lovely imagery not to mention sheer winsomeness to charm. Thank you for sharing.

🤣 perfectly philosophical delivery of \"That it’s not the destination
But the journey!!\"
and then came in
\"Oh damnation…\"
A googly which would have made the bowler pat his own back.

Dave, this made me smile, my friend. There’s warmth and self-awareness here that carries the piece, typos and all. The joy is in the telling, and it comes through clearly. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Yikes. Yeah...poem is proof you are no longer blocked. But, yikes! I have yet to have this issue that I see others having. I am trying to find a piece of wood to knock on as we speak. 🤣 Hope that does not happen again.

\"Everybody Knows Dave\"
Paul Bell said:
Dave\'s on a mission around the world, and its only right famous people would want to be photographed with him.
In saying that. The Pope lad, he\'s a bit miffed you took his gold toilet. I told him it was an overshite, oops, meant oversight.
Now assuming you\'ve not melted it down, could you maybe haul it back, the cistern chapel without a bog is just a chapel.
Nobel thing coming your way.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Dave, this is playful storytelling with a knowing wink. The rhyme keeps it buoyant, the cameos escalate the absurdity, and the shaggy dog payoff lands perfectly. If this is you lightening up, I’d say it suits you well. Thoroughly enjoyed, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Dave you made me smile with this one. It seems that I have known a couple of people like this. I had an uncle like that he took us as a child several places where he moved people out of their seats so we could sit in the best place, directed traffic in traffic jams to get us through, stopped planes from taking off so he could get on and say goodbye to people, parked in law enforcement only places moving the barricades and putting them back behind him and not getting toed or even a ticket.

Now I\'m forced I\'m lieu of the traditional \"Dear John\" letters to write a \"Dear Dave\" letter?! Does it go to the same place? Have the same effect? Oh, pardon me, I don\'t even write such letters. Charming, very charming, dear Sir. Thank you so very much for sharing.

Calling Dave a knave—basically a fancy synonym for asshole. Just kidding, Dave. This limerick’s sharp and funny; I can feel the mischief without it ever crossing the line. Nicely done.

The poem made me think. Is saving of reality to be accomplished through its exposure or through creation of folklore that it used to be there? A great poem - a fave.
