I like to write in metre and rhyme
But I don't do that all the time
I like to mix it up a little
Like now for instance.
I like to write them sad and long
I make them up as I go along
But to give myself some room to wiggle
There is no real insistence.
I try to write one every day
Even if I've nowt to say
If you've read this far without a giggle
Thanks for your persistence!

A man after my own heart. A fun read.
Hey, I wrote that for you. A bit of whimsy I feel as if I promised you yesterday. Have a great day. It\'s actually sunny in Glasgow! I\'m sitting outside a cafe smoking a cigarette and obviously looking like a really cool elder gentleman (I wish).
That is most flattering and appreciated my friend I am sitting outside on a front deck looking over the creek pasture and newly planted orchard smoking my pipe and feeling a bit old. Have a wonderful day
Jabberwocky, this is gloriously cheeky. You set up metre and rhyme, then immediately start poking holes in your own rules. Loved that. 😂 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thanks Tristan. I just wanted to have some fun with it.... for a change!
