Nonsense
Yes, that’s what I need
If I must need
Anything
Seems I must
Seems I do
Need to need
Something true
So, nonsense
It shall be
That keeps me from needing
Truly needy things
We’ll speak of it
We’ll have a smile
Sipping coffee all the while
And if I should attempt
To extract
Anymore nonsense than that
Throw a shot of rum in mine
I’ll forget
In record time

(giggles in delight) Oh Duncan, I couldn't agree with you more, I think we all need some nonsense sometimes so we can have fun and embrace the world with a smile then wonder how we got here and where we are going suddenly! (big hugggssssss) This is delightful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Duncan, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

==========================

hmmm ... quite a deep piece of "nonsense"
(reading between the lines of "needing") ...
much to find here that makes perfect sense.
I enjoy exploring the layers of your poetry ... succinctity of complexity *S*
Should I be worried that your "nonsense" makes sense to me?
Hey...they told Dr. Seuss his rhymes were nonsense ...
and look how that worked out   LOL

You have a need for nonsense?
No if or ands or buts?
If you don't mind my saying so
Friend Duncan...that is nuts!!

Not to think of real problems?
Not to think of pain?
Not to think of mounting bills?
Hey, Duncan! That's insane!!

You'd rather have some silly giggles?
Rather have some fluff?
Rather speak in gibberish
And all that foolish stuff?

You'd rather smile and say goodbye
To all anxiety?
The only thing that I can say
Is, "Pour a cup for me!!!!"

(smiling) Nonsense you say? Balderdash!!

nicely done my friend... pour a cup for me, we'll go out and look for Iambe, let her fix that flat you had, and perhaps she'll take like to you  and you can then tell her tales while I go off and find more rum.
