No1 from MORE OF THE DIFFERENT 

(My latest collection of shorties)

 

 

Nothing for dinner yesterday

and nothing for dinner tonight

I thought I’d made enough for two days

but I’m starving so something’s not right.

    There may be nothing for dinner but there is plenty in this short helping of poetry. Clever in both meaning and metaphor and even more clever in wording with rhyme a fave

      Happy to send you bread and wine ๐Ÿคฃ although I find humour in this, the current situation in the UK makes me feel nervous for those I love. ๐ŸŒน

        Looking down at my expanding belly I think I might miss out and stick to salad leaves. Or there again..........

              I love bread and dripping - does the younger generation even know what it is?

              Something up with portion control Michael. Who ate all the food? Have you got a dog by any chance? Hope youโ€™ve eaten by now. Love your artwork. Is that your own?

              • Michael Edwards

                Thanks Cassie - yes all the pictures that accompany my poems are mine - I'm a practising artist although slowing down these days as age dictates and yes - I've got a dachsund, Stanley - the greediest loveliest little fella you could wish for.
