Tonight I saw a new star When I opened my backdoor, Knowing in my heart noone's Seen it there before. Back inside before my comp I surfed the Internet; And with its coordinates Noone's named it yet. An apoplectic fit I almost had, So great was my glee; If first I was to name it I'd be known for eternity! I finally got through the Registry And shared of my delight, And learned that my star Was an Hispanic satellite! Alicat, the Persnikitty < !signature--> As I sit here dimly thinking Watching modem lights a-blinking Churning out poetic hash. Lord, in all Your piety, Help me keep my sanity: Please d [This message has been edited by Alicat (edited 08-22-2000).] |

Ali, LOL......thank for the laughs!! This was too funny!!!  Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

PdV: Thanky ma'am. You might notice that I've edited the poem...thought about what you said, and reckoned that poetic license can only go so far. Marge, Paula, jwesley, Wet, and Lone Wolf: Glad you liked it, and that it brought a wee bit of pleasure. LSS: Um...not that I know of...I just kinda, sorta, um...made it up as I went along kinda thingy...  |

Very funny. I liked the ending. Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
