Has anybody here seen Don-Rhymer
I've looked for him everywhere.
I've told him that his time is up,
But he doesn't seem to care.
He shoots off in his campervan
With that little dog he's got.
I'd thought I nearly had him
When his lungs began to rot.
One day I'm going find him,
To play the final scene
For now I'll put the fear up him,
Because it's Halloween.
Grim reaper you can try your best,
To find our lovely Don
Seek him here and there you pest,
Then just wander on,
He’s not ready to go just yet
But when he is you’ll know so
Just let Don and his lovely pet,
On their merry way to go. Xxxxx
👏👏👏👏
Dear Mr Reaper,
It has come to my attention that you seek the whereabouts of Mr Rhymer. Being the case that Mr Rhymer is poet in residence here, he automatically has diplomatic immunity from your good self. The aforementioned gentleman may under no circumstances be approached herein or sought by any means therefore I suggest you put your scythe to good use and do some grass cutting then be on your way forthwith. Failure to comply will result in undesirable consequences for yourself.
Sincerely,
Mr Rhymer’s self-appointed legal jargon provider.
🤣👏👏
Be gone hapless Reaper
Our Don is here to stay
Take your cloak and sickle
And flee the light of day
For even if it's Halloween 🎃👻
You have no say
Be gone hapless Reaper
You shall not take Don today 😠
👏👏Thanks Cas 😘
Don darling it isn't your time just yet so stay with us please. We need you and your lovely poems to keep us going. xx
I think you are a right little ‘goer’ anyway Pussycat. 😉
Ha ha in my youth. Now it's just in my head 
xx
What lovely replies. 
Thank you, thank you.
Brilliant! Made me chuckle x
Love it
Another fab one from our Don and the rest of the cast, this had me laughing out loud, just love it, thank you all x
Brilliant, you should put all your poems together and publish a book.
That's kind of you to say so, but what would I be doing with a book? I will be 87 next week and my only purpose for writing at all is to entertain my friends on here who are suffering from lung problems as I am myself. 
That's just such a "typical Don"/reply!!
The Grim Reaper can't catch you yet....you're far to much needed here dear friend!
Oh Don. You are the Man to Cheer us up on a dark day like this. My Goodness you Keep us all enthralled with your Magic Pen & Wand to Point your Words in our Direction to make us all Smile on a Grim Day that is Today. Just Like "Harry Potter" you Come Back with more Spine Chilling Wizardry. Our Don is protected by this Magical Forum from all Reapers. Love n Hugs Don. XXXX
