Don't waste a moment

orchidee

Don't waste a moment....

Reading some of my rubbish!

Apologies that ya waste

23 seconds or so every time - heehee.

 

Oh, Fido says to me

If ya got summat to say, man

Just say it in few words

Not use 500 words when 5 will do

And the only 'rambling' ya gotta do

Is take me out for walkies!

Not waffle on endlessly

Interminably

And that's quite a long word - 

You'd never have thought up a 5-syllable word

With only your 3 brain cells

And your metres or formats of, Oh, I dunno

84. 6. 43. 76 .5. 26. 4. for example

Are ya playing bingo?!

 

Lend or give me some of your brain cells, Fido

I ask him, cos he has 3 billion or more of 'em

 

Doh! Now you've read this so-called poem!

Talking to self, I say:

You time-waster, you bounder, you cad.....

Haven't poets got more important things to do

Than tune into your nonsense poems?!

LOL.

    I would rather waste time with a smile than do something necessary with a frown. That's my motto but then I'm old. Good one Orchi

            Orchi, this is no waste at all! Fido supplies the brains, you supply the rambling, and Popeye supplies the gluggery while I check the bingo card. A perfectly efficient literary enterprise if you ask me. LOL! 🤣 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
