They took my poem and posted it
On another site,
They took the credit for my crap,
And that just isn't right!!

You know they must have writer's block
If they'd use a work of mine
Most my stuff is really bad,
Usually don't rhyme

I wonder why they didn't use
One of my great works
'Bout Balladeer my dear dear friend
With all his little 'quirks"

Some steal your money-credit cards
Your entire identity,
Guys will try to steal your heart
To steal virginity.

"Time" steals your youth and memory
The luster from your hair
You lose the gold as you grow old
What's left leaves04 silver there.

So take my poems and post on walls
It's just a name and nothing more,
Use it well cuz what the hell
That's what walls are for!

(Note: stole the last line from from an old folk song).

You started off cute and funny like I'm used to Toe ... but I sure love it when you weave in the wisdom and truths throughout your fun pieces.

Loved this part especially:

I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts here as well. They can take your words, but that's about it. Your character and personality are yours and yours alone ... and we love ya for that!

Best wishes and hugs,
/Kit

I can understand someone taking yours, because yours is so much better. But, they must be real desperate to take one of mine. And, that is just what they did. They sure had alot of nerve.

Why anyone would steal your stuff
Is a mystery to me.
If they get caught you know the plead
Will be insanity!

How could any human mind commit
Such a silly stupid blunder?
Aha! I hear he's just been caught..
The thief is Stevie Wonder!!!

M'friend, I surely and will here admit
that to claim a poem of yours? 'Tis wit!
For yours is none other than fine...
but then they'd admit, to toes, and rags, and kind....





Love ya!

Isn't that the God's truth, though? LOL But even time doesn't steal your talent, dear one... how dare anyone else try to!!!!

A great humorous look at a situation that had me wanting to kick bricks! *S*

Hi, Toe! I'm glad that suthern bumped this back into the light of day! I had missed it the first time around!

Love your self-effacing wit and charm!

Giving you a warm hug of love from north of the 49th!

Now this is what is meant by 'Lemons to lemonade.'  I really enjoyed it and Balladeer's reply, too.

Thank you for the smile, again!  It is a sad thing when people can't think for themselves and resort to taking someone else's thoughts.   Your attitude is great though...

As for losing the gold when one gets old, it's too expensive to get gold even in your teeth to keep these days.  The gold in my hair is all fallin' out..the silver, too!
