TWO FOR ONE THOUSAND

Michael Edwards

 

 

Two shorties to celebrate my one thousandth posting here on MPS - never ever dreamed I'd ever reach such a number - where's the bubbly?

 

 

 

I’m an artist and poet and moreover

this is my thousandth poem here

so  it’s time at last for you to move over

and give up your crown  Mr William Shakespeare.

 

 

 

Chuffed as punch I must confess

at last I’m here – I don’t know how

one thousand poems on MPS

it’s time for me to take a bow.

    Many congratulations Michael, just keep going, there are too many words within you to 'take a bow'.
    Your painting shows many paths (there's a poem there) and the one you are walking with MPS is a never-ending one.

      Thanks Andy. The painting was done as an experiment - mostly pen work - it did get a tad tedious after a whie but the end result is interestinf (at least I think so).

      Best wishes M!
      Yes - not 'bow out', just 'take a bow'.
      That must be about 10 million (sylla) berles used! How much do they cost?

        I'll have to work out the total taking the average per poem. Trouble is, with covid, the suppliers keep running out.

        There was a fine chap called M.E.
        Who'd been on a grand writing spree
        i can imagine the scene
        as before the queen
        he's dubbed whilst down on one knee.

        Through canvas, sculpture and word
        The artist was seen, felt and heard
        though it never was planned
        he's reached his first grand
        now bring on his second and third
