dusk arising

i have to say its a worry
how Orchi posts hymns in a flurry
but of course he has help
with a whine and a yelp
from his four legged friend so furry

 

pinching lead from his old church roof
i realised i'd finally got proof
for though he looked awkward
sat there at the keyboard
a dog was composing woof woof

 

amazingly dextorous paws
were playing melodious chords
a growl and a whine
and strict tempo time
every lyrical venture explored

 

Well finally the author's unmasked
now undoubtedly up to the task
doggedly determined
Fido's been learnin
his hymn writing skill's unsurpassed

 

So there's never a cough or a splutter
Orchi's lyrics flow on without clutter
between lines of his hymns
hides his darkest of sins
for dog trainings been his bread and butter

 

All rise as now enters the vicar
orchi hides his dog all the quicker
"Ah youve wrote me a hymn"
Orchidee starts to grin
"I can write you two more for ten knicker"

    Great write dusk.
    But when was this contractual arrangement actually initiated? (the Publicity Department of orchidee inc. all talk that kind of BS).
    But be careful - his tentacles spread far and wide – I even hear of his activities (to clarify – Hymns) down here on the earth’s underside….
    Still – if you are prepared to do it, sell your soul for some of his lucre, go for it….

    Fido can really chime, but my god you can really rhyme. What a kicker, this is surely worth more than ten knickers

    Hilarious it was
    When the words flew
    By the typing on a piano side
    Well humour did find its air …
