Reading poetry can be good
When otherwise you maybe would
Have difficulty because you're ill
With pleasant thoughts your head to fill
While usually very short in stature
They could contain the state you're after
For each word will be picked with care
In an effort to guide you where
No bad thoughts will ever dare
To intrude on the peacefulness that you find there.
Poetry is really good
Writing it is understood
To be good for the little grey cells
Helping to keep you focused and feeling well
You are excellent our dear Don
Never one to be put upon
Raising a smile everyday
Keeping loneliness at bay.
Thank you again Don. Xxxxx
Strangely I am what the members here have made me. 😘x (In that respect😉)
Can’t be bad Don. Xx 👍😘

Good morning Mr.D and what a terrific rhyme for a Sunday. (Not that there's any 🌞 here today). One of your more thought triggering rhymes. They make you read,stop and reflect. Good one Mr.D. Hope you have a good day.💞
Of course I'm not talking about my stuff here which are rhymes and not poetry. There's nothing uplifting about rhymes like Humpy Dumpy, quite the reverse, but a smile can help and laughter even better if can be achieved.
Mr Don! With pleasant thoughts in my head...
I am happy, I am not dead!
My lungs are in need of great repair....
I also know, you too, live there!
I lost my grey cells long ago
Where they went i do not know?
Don and Sassy still have their cells
Creating literary magic spells
Even Scruff's is known to write
The odd cat poem penned through the night
Me i wonder where those cells went
Perhaps the result of a life misspent?

Indubitably SirSki 
Without a doubt dear majji that is indeed a posh word. xx
Do you wish me to apologise SirSki?
Please don't majji i probably wouldn't understand the reply and i am only hanging onto my broadband by the skin of a mini hub donated by my service provider,the subsequent googling to work out what you said would see me slip into the dark web. xx
That actually sounds quite exciting SirSki
I can always rely on her majjisty to bring a smile even in times of adversity. xx
Oh how dim I am - I have only just absorbed the very clever majjisty spelling, well done SirSki
Understandable Ma'am you are very busy at the palace at the moment with some wayward children that are bringing the family into disrepute. xx
Lol - I was tempted to write exactly what I thought about that wayward child however I do not wish to end up in the Tower so best keep my thoughts close to my chest xx
You do very well with it miniscule or not! 😎👍 I thought I'm better edit this to point out that I'm referring to your broadband gadget and nothing else. (That I know of. 😁 )
Lotsalols Cap'n ;-)xx
Cap'n did you see my "spot on" comment about Irish roots the other day?
Wishing everyone a lovely evening - sleep well to one and all.
I am convener of a poetry reading group for our local U3A which meets monthly. There are six of us and we all thoroughly enjoy it. The poems can make us laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time!
