Reading out loud brings exaltation

rew4er2nail

Yours truly whiles hours away

reading out loud... tis not hearsay

cuz ears of mine relish... neigh

feast hearing spoken words, I do say

plus eyes (mine) drink one

or more letter combination yea.

 

Aforesaid pastime doth rarely

if ever tire hungry bookworm

whose ravenous appetite manifested

within thy being when infinitesimal

mature haploid male or

female germ cell did squirm

 

chiefly hankering to unite with

another of the opposite sex in

sexual reproduction to form zygote

ideally until healthy parturition

i.e. full embryonic term.

 

Impossible mission to ascertain

inexplicable predilection sounding

out words doth prevail, hence

mind boggling to explain

possibly... linkedin to ancestors

emigrating from Ukraine.

 

Quite far fetched i.e.

outrageous hypothetical suggestion,

yours truly doth attest

enigmatic why I experience

unbridled wedded zest

(yup... meanwhile still

awaiting pathology results


courtesy electric kool

aid acid test)

since no rhyme nor reason

would put to rest

profound predilection towards

English language I jest

kibitz with feeble and lame

humor at my behest.

 

Even when just twinkle in papa's eye,

and ditto countless generations

since beginning of time well nigh

present pluperfect long haired

pencil necked geek play catch up,


i.e. well bred and raised on wry

courtesy punster mocker

intelligent daddy hood decry

miserable lot visited upon

the fountainhead of humanity

nevertheless, one intelligent guy

papa employed within

confidential aerospace division

General Electric, his

truly valued calling

within role which I

heretofore state passion


drafting, building, and refurbishing

non complex edifices housing why

he bought apartments within Norristown

your guess as good as mind,

nonetheless I deny

he skillfully, lovingly

and energetically did apply

native born talent as self taught

bridging - think River Kwai
craftsmanship thwarted


as mechanical engineer

aburst with creativity,

he often did resignedly sigh

minor misfortune relegating energy,

where smarts got him - no lie

earning advanced degree from Columbia,

which allowed, enabled, and provided

economic status lifestyle within middle class

regaling Harris family,

albeit trumpeting mock apple pie

 

trappings, yet methinks papa

now nonagenarian widower

once upon courtship wooing Harriet

(Kuritsy maiden Canarsie, USA)

evinced flair with literary flare.
