Unhinged?

β€’35 Replies

I've been writing poems on here

For three full years or more

Some are really brilliant

Most are rather poor

Some disclose my mental state

Which perhaps I shouldn't do

I wonder, "Are all my chairs at home?"

And so must most of you

But if they entertain you

I don't care any more

Who are those white-coated people

Banging on my door?

Here's to many more years of your poems. I look forward to seeing them, and my heart always sinks a little if I come here and find you haven't posted a new rhyme for us. Thank you for the difference you make to my day 😊

Master Po we don't care if your going nuts and get classified insane

You really must keep writing or we'll have no one else to blame

For those embarrassing occasions when in company we suddenly laugh out loud

Because we remembered one of Don's silly poems we once read on this cloud

Keep em coming................Ski's and Scruff's x

'In reality', things are a bit weird at the moment Don so if I were you I wouldn't worry about losing your grasp - just go with the flow😜..........and keep making us smile😊

Most poems are really brilliant Don

And none are ever poor

You’re master rhymer, second to none

Of that you can be sure

Nobody questions your sanity

No one knocking at your door

You even bring out the best in me

Which nobody’s done before.

Take care lovely Don xxx πŸ‘πŸ˜˜

What a gift. Truly.

Bless you and Midge of course.

Oh Don. Your poems are delightful. I was once on another forum reading about liver woes when someone popped in and was asking about breathing issues. Someone promptly recommended BLF and someone else told them to look out for "a fellow named Don" who does some good rhymes. I jest you not. And this was quite some time ago. So you see, you are a delight to many of us, not just us here on BLF but on HU in general. I think there would be a mass virtual riot if you were to stop writing. xx 😘😘😁
