Silent Poem

orchidee

Here's a silent poem - or a waste of a poem again...

Verse 1

................................

...............................

...............................

..............................

 

Verse 2 - up to last verse - 5,496.

Same layout as verse 1.

I dunno what format it is

Can't see it - it's invisible!

 

Could it be an 8.8.8.8?

Or a 6.6.8.6.?

Or even a 10.10.10.10.?

It might be a 9.5.7.8.

Whatever you want it to be

And how long or short you want it to be!

 

I want no grumbles of 

'Oh, I can't write poetry'

See - Silent Poems - the simplest sort

Am I pulling your leg?!

And if I pull the other leg

Has it got bells on? lol.

 

Do shut up now, Orchi, says Fido

You're beginning to ramble again

Keep taking your tablets! heehee.

    Next time we can use a metronome to help us keep time with this silent poem! The Hymn could be ‘Silent Night.’

        I think I’m losing my mind. This is the second poem. I’ve read today that speaks of silence, emptiness, and that I can’t see. Fun nonetheless till five out to be quiet.

        • orchidee

          This is a poem of utter rubbish - or nonsense! lol.

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          Keep the daftness coming! That Fido really has a tough job reigning you in, huh? 🤣 I never thought of writing a "silent" poem...well done friend! 🌹👏

          • orchidee

            Thanks T. How do we know how many verses it has?! lol. Fido says I long as I don't take a certain blue tablet. Then it would be in the realm of TMI - Too Much Information to tell! heehee.

            • Tristan Robert Lange

              LOL! Hahahahaha! Indeed! 🤣

            • Mackenz

              Hmm, did your rats write it?

              • orchidee

                Thanks M. They are guinea pigs! lol.

                • Mackenz

                  Lol riight

                • Michael Edwards

                  That's another unknown fact I didn't know.

                  • orchidee

                    Thanks M. Fact No.11?

                    My muse has been very quiet lately Orchi. Been posting older stuff. I think your silent poem could be catching.

                    As to the tablets. Keep taking them 😂

                    • orchidee

                      Thanks Cassie. lol.

                      Absence makes the heart grow fonder......And it would be fonder still if you could up the volume of the silence even further........

                      • orchidee

                        One was singing off-key (not me) at a place of work. Someone remarked: \'Is there music, or a tune, to that?\' lol. Aww - you fond of Sir NS\'s sidetracks?

                      • Thomas W Case

                        Lol. Excellent.

                          Here is a piece of music that fits with your poem Orchi.

                            Maybe just increase the dose morning noon and night .. leave those ones in-between at the same dose for now ... Okay 🐧👍
