ON BEING A POET

A fine write Michael. Also - woof, woof, I\'m a watchdog, for poems that should be marked 18+, but are not! Naughty!
Not to brag, but in poetic mode, I occasionally write words that are not in the dictionary! One recently was \'obstinant\' as \'obstinate\' did not rhyme properly.

I am a bit of stickler when writing the English language, except in poetry, where I write in a way that I have found suits me. I certainly do not use bad language, except in context, and my rhyming is well hidden most of the time. Poetry is special to me.

Indeed, great advice... Your, oops, you\'re very disciplined in your craft. I gather you have the same standards for your painting. Your, oh no, you\'re precise. Great write!

OK, Michael, first of all your poem is not PC (frogs eat snails), my French brother in law would probably object, but then he is not really French, he is from Alsace and speaks German.
But otherwise I just love it!

I\'m amazed at the many ways poetry can be presented as mathematical equations, Michael. You seem to know them all. Kudos!

Michael, you really are the master of poetic forms! And beautiful too!
Now for me, since I am not so good at it, is there a form that would require five lines, with all five repeating?

A fine write, if a bit swoony for me! Someone found too many \'Alleluias\' in a hymn a bit tiresome. Mind you, with the repetitions there were 35 of them in the hymn altogether!

OK, Michael, it IS gender related and here is why:
Imagine the brain as being a cupboard with many little drawers. Each drawer stands for something, i.e. husband, kids, car, house, love, mother, father, etc.
When men talk they open ONE drawer. They talk about cars, the only drawer that is open is the car drawer. For kids it is the kids drawer, etc.
Women on the other hand, open all drawers at the same time.
That is why they can do a lot of different things at once, and why we men will never understand them. But if we love them, we don\'t need to understand them.

Thank you Michael ~ but as a DEFENDER of All My Sisters ~ I have to defer. In my experience both at WORK & PLAY ~ GOD gave Eve and all her SISTERS multitaskability ~ NOT ~ because All Men are STUPID & LAZY (only 51% are !) but because while Men daydream of Nigella Lawson in the Kitchen and Paris Hilton in the Boudoir (Rich & Beautiful !) and England winning the World Cup ! The LADIES ~ GET ON WITH THE JOB ! That is why the UK has a QUEEN and THERESA MAN steering the HMS GREAT BRITAIN through troubled waters ! ADAM was a DRAFT ~ EVE is the REAL THING ~ AMEN. Thanks for scaring ~ the MPS LADIES are too gentile to castigate you Mike ~ so I\'m doing it on their behalf ~ BRIAN
