I have cents ability
I'm a nickel in a ten cent world
So second hand is my debility
As too late I'm hurled

I fell within the slips of costs
As a nickel in a ten cent world
But something gained is nothing lost
When prices are unfurled

And bargains all around are twirled
Money to re-arrange
I may be a nickel in a ten cent world
But to me it's all just change



Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Hey, Keth, I will never think of you as a two-bit poet again!  

You done good, my girl....real good!

Keth darling sister of my heart, I'm here aren't I? You surely don't want me to say anything do you? Good grief sister dearest are you never content? I've worked my fingers to the bone.

Yes it's wonderful, yes it's marvellous and yes it's magic. Well that's it, there's no point in hanging about for other phrases to fall onto the page. You don't want fulsome praise do you? Certainly not. If I praise you then you'll stop working, so mush mush mush.

Go on leave then, there won't be any bravi's or bravissimi's. (tsk tsk, well just because it deserves it doesn't necessarily mean you're going to get any does it?

Oh okay then but this is under protest you know

Bravi Bravi Bravissimi

Love and warm stuff
as always
