Ding! Dong!
Hello to this, for me, new universe of WOL. This poem was 'uninspired'. I was give the first line as a challenge to see if I could make a poem from it. Can there be good 'uninspired 'poetry?
Ding! Dong!
Who's that ringing my doorbell?
That ding-dong-dinging's hard to ignore.
Better get out of my shell.
Have they got nice stuff to sell?
Or are they collecting for the poor?
Who's that ringing my doorbell?
Someone with a tale to tell?
Or my needy neighbour needing more?
Better get out of my shell.
Maybe a ragged rebel
Escaping death in an unjust war?
Who's that ringing my doorbell?
A friend come to say farewell?
A lonely wandering dinosaur?
Better get out of my shell.
I don't know, I can't foretell,
But there it goes, louder than before.
Who's that ringing my doorbell?
Better - - get out of - - my shell!
