Doggerel Dave said:

I\'m sure they will get the odd tickle of interest at that auction, Andy - human cupidity and stupidity knows no bounds...
Complete contrast to the tickles you got here, which definitively prove poets are a higher life form...

I was five and uncle cedric took me to this pub where the music was loud and a blonde lady was dancing and taking off her clothes. She removed everything except her black gloves and boots and then stood there like the five of spades. Unclre Cedric... why is her hair blonde on top but black down there, I asked. Well dusk, do you remember when yer dad hit his thumb with the hammer last month and it turned black? Yes i said. Well my lad, he said pointing at her nether regions, that\'s had some hammer son.

That song reborn on our TVs these days in the LLoyds bank advert always makes me think of my son and how he and his partner have built, day by day into the fabulous (Oh that word from the 60\'s LOL) unit they have become.
Of course us old codgers are a long way from \'only just begun\' and taking the words of your poem to heart is a must for us.

Grey days are still days which are lit by the eternal light which gave us life and preserves life.

Into my favourites Andy.

Doggerel Dave said:

Infinite universes are more than likely, I feel; however, I cannot buy the infinite versions of me stuff.
But who knows?
Thanks for raising the topic, Andy.

But Is It Poetry?
SureshG said:

I’ve seen a blank canvas in a recognized gallery, displayed as art, so who shall claim that a Scribble is not poetry, btw - this is poetry

But Is It Poetry?
Doggerel Dave said:

Yes, Andy. Just because I prefer rhyme and the rest doesn\'t mean I don\'t enjoy unstructured stuff (although no rhymes present doesn\'t mean it doesn\'t have any structure or cohesion). Whether I enjoy depends on the skill of the writer and the content - all very subjective judgments.

Now me poem - \'But is it singing?\' (by me). Answer: Nope!

But Is It Poetry?
dusk arising said:

So true, the average person has no interest beyond the obvious in art or poetry. Indeed very few seem to appreciate poetry. Most seem to expect rhyme.... and say it cant be poetry if it doesn\'t rhyme.

I think the most of us on mps are far broader minded than that

But Is It Poetry?
Saxon Crow said:

Well it all depends on how you say it i reckon.

Very good point well made GF
