Linda's Jottings

It's a day late - but I did try!

[More:]

It’s Poetry Day! It’s Poetry Day!
And Sue wants some poems on Writelink.
I look for some paper, then find a pen,
try telling my brain it really must think
of something profound or amazingly witty.
‘The flowers are looking (so? rather? quite?) pretty’
I just need some words that can pass as poetic
but all my attempts are simply pathetic.

It’s Poetry Day! It’s Poetry Day!
Oh, for an ode, or a sonnet or haiku!
There’s not enough time to tackle an epic,
a lyric or limerick would do
to post on my blog for Writelinkers to see,
something original, written by me.
But my muse has gone AWOL though I’ve looked far and near
so - sorry, Sue, I promise I’ll try it next year.
