Poetry can't be serious all the time, it is good to kick back and relax with a little play, and occasionally it sparks something else. This form is unlikely to produce anything earth shattering, but who knows, it depends on the talent guiding it, so why not have a go Nigel?

Nigel, I know the winds off Cardigan Bay aren't as uplifting as the ones off the Bristol Channel that ferry the Port Talbot stink of steel and petit socialisme into the Valleys, but live a little. =)

I like this, could this be a special thread thing like the Haikus and Word bits? It seems like fun and I may start plotting my own Fibonnaci poem soon :)

This is fun, thanks Sharra.

OK, I'm really kicking-the-ass out of the international wordplay here, but I am Scottish, and we are drinking dry white wine this evening (perhaps you can tell) :oops:

Yay. Claps. Very good, Neil. You sound like an extremely relaxed accountant in your cups.

Thanks, David.

Glad you liked.

I tried to PM you for some moderator-etiquette-advice.

My post seems to be stuck in outbox.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Neil, I think it stays in outbox until I open it - then it appears in your sent messages. So, if you send it again, it will just sit in outbox until I open it, but it's not stuck ... I think.

Cheers

David

Don't

the best days will come
long after the exams are done.

Yet
with
regret
we look back.
At halcyon days,
with our eyes on the horizon.
