Idle Chit Chat from a Walkabout Mind

 

I'm sitting in Hillbillys

My Thalia, Muse of Mirth

Watching over shoulder as

I write these gems of worth

 

(Or rubbish....)

 

There's one thing I enjoy 'bout this

Keyboarding all my thoughts

'Lectronically to my hard drive

From where they're held tight, caught....

 

Till when I choose, release them

From hard drive to your screen

Viewed by those who wish to

Wish my stuff be seen

 

And yes, I call it 'stuff' on purpose

You decide it's worth

Is it poetry or not?

Rubbish? Genius birth?

 

I know I'm 'crazy', different

My mind goes walkabout

Thankyou Rose explaining why

Why it takes this route

 

I don't know what to comment

I don't know what to say

It's all just stuff and nonsense Don

Don't stop, keep blogging 'way

 

I really don't care what you think

I'll think, keyboard and post

Cos doing this, I like it, fun

(For breakfast I had toast...)

 

(What's toast got to do with it?...)

 

(Nothing.....just rhymes)

 

(He's hopeless....)

The reference to betting shops reminds me of the gag from an old
(as "of yesteryear") comic about his luck backing the gee-gees.:
"I follow the horses that follow other horses".
Boom-boom!!

Froggy went a wooing go
(Thalia says hello)
Wherever is this rhyming going?
Beats me Phil, dunno ?

Oh yes she does remember
Remember you quite well
She thanks you for your WOL Muse Tour
(With me she kinda fell)

It was sorta mutual really....

Hello Don - say Hi to Thalia for me - there was a frog who lived in a bog - Hey Ho - said Rowley - the frog got as big as a house through eating toast with too much butter on it. Had to go to the froggie vet (before the betting shop) but the vet just said 'Hop it'. Strangely enough there was a horse running that day with the name of Hoppity so froggie backed it and went forth and multiplied. Rivet, Rivet. Don't tread on any frogs - you'll need to get the shoe brush out. P. ?

I'm first up on the blogslide
Yippee! (he's like a kid)
He'll soon come down to earth again
And down the blogslide slid....?

(Who's that spoiling my fun?....)
