I sat there eating my oatmeal . . . Eh, you see what happened. words drip from my mouth no mater how fast I chew as I spoon poetry from the bowl some letters fall undigested onto the table where I sit to form other, unused phrases paragraphs of shoeing a horse the hardscrabble words frown at what the words have made not one poem in the lot but they are stuck where they are cannot rearrange themselves upon the hard tabletop in the meantime I chomp on absorbing poetry elite suddenly I hear a scream look down from whence it came as I bite down on senryu's I scrape unhappy words into my hands and gently drop them into the bowl of poetry porridge where they happily gave me five sonnets and one blushing limerick ©February 19, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Heeeheheee... Try stake and potato, I bet that would make for some beefy verses. Your humor is better than lumpy oatmeal, and I love lumpy oatmeal... Nice one, JP JL  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. Maranatha! |

Seems like your great, imaginative poetry is a hit JerryPat2, so I'll add my own accolades to it! It's said that Magnetic Poetry was created from a spill of alphabet soup. I've spilled plenty, but it never inspired me to do anything but clean it up! I guess that's why I'm still renting. Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...please! |

Jerry, very nice write, I miss the poetry stew of this place and want to get back into the pot but being out so long its not easy. seems to me you still have a lot to write and mix in this pot. as long as your pen is ready to stir don't say goodbye its a nice place to write your fill even if not everyone bites.

Looks like your stew really hit the spot Jerry! Nice thing about oatmeal, if you leave it long enough it can substitute for concrete. ~L |
