Move your big fat head Frost you block the sun like it's all dark down this well you're creeping me out with your ramblings of clouds , appearing God-like don't make me come up there and slap you about! Something more? OK pal, you are annoying me to death with archaic form blah blah blah others taunt you because you quit your day job to waste time writing poems of wells ha ha ha . I see you way up there I know you hear me toss a rope or I swear I'll whup you big time one more thing poet boy if you're so smart then how come my poem not yours is perfectly rhymed? Wait come back I didn't mean to be offensive but it's just that I'm stuck down here and I'm bored do you think maybe you could get me published though this may sound farfetched I'd like nothing more.

Mayhap try a little more honey next time? Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

 I love the conversational quality here, the down-to-earth language and the whole thing, really. It pasted a big smile on my face, and that's what I like the most.Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Dear Dr. Moose1, At first I was offended how anyone could talk about one of my favorite poets that way. Then I thought of something Robert said and you and him made me laugh, because I was dreaming what it would be like to grab you by the throat. LOL You did just as Robert said and did it well my friend. You got me! David D Jerald Poetry is way of taking life by the throat. Robert Frost 1874-1963 U.S. Poet |

Once again the last shall be first, Dear David D. Thank you kindly, my intent was not to offend, merely amuse. I also am a BIG FAN of the departed Mr. Frost. I have imitated his style on two or three occasions, hopefully without causing any lasting damage. To smile, and laugh, therefore to live fully. Doc Pilgrimage, Thanks so much, that was my intent, to visualize what would perhaps take place if someone was down Frosts' well when he was composing such an articulate piece. Doc Interloper, Thanks. Honey ain't funny, as I hoped this would be. My apologies to all. Doc Nakd, Thanks. If I remember correctly he was a tad put off ( obviously, as my publishing contract never came through ). Last I remember, he mumbled something about voices in his head and that was the last I heard from him . Good thing I don't need a publisher anymore ( what with all the spare change people keep tossing in here ) but, I could still use that rope, got any on ya? Doc |
