Nonsense!

The snow’s got me down, it all such a pain,
Its even got me hoping for rain,
To wash it away and stop the ice,
I even think the swamp would be nice,
Cus that’s what it will do and no mistake,
On all my walk ways and every gate,
Today I forgot in my head I am free,
And able to go sit by the old oak tree,
In the meadow of grass where there is no rain,
To stay long enough, dream and to forget pain,
You can all come with and there we shall all play,
5 a side and splat the rat, hey lets have a fun day,
We can enjoy our selves and run a mock,
I might even borrow that hat and the frock,
Covered in flowers and of course straw in the hat,
Now how can I be sad when I got all that?
Please come with cus your all real friends,
But as me to go in water and swim kinda depends,
Yet I will happily swing from rope up in the tree,
To fly like a bird and fell at last free,
For the long grass Page has trays, I got a mat,
I am off there now so I guess that’s about that!

    Oh Valval. that was lovely.
    It took me away on a memory reading that. It will be a hard act to follow.
    I think you have started a poetry contest here, what do you think?

    Lovely poem - not sure I'd wear a dress with a ribbon tied round me, but would definitely join you guys in shorts :-)

    And poetry contest? I think we already have the winner, don't we?

    Hi Chris

    I'm fully recovered from my birthday now, thanks :-)

    The creative writing course is going well, just handed in assignment 2 out of 6 last Friday. I only have this year and next left to complete my degree.

    I'm doing my course through the Open University, why don't you have a look at their website for ideas? I've done the level 2 creative writing course and am doing the level 3 one this year and really enjoying it.

    Love your poem, I even found the switch for a while, but think my wiring might be faulty!! :oops: Will try again soon. Hope you have had a better day now you have bread AND rain. :D I would do the swimming bit but not the swinging on a rope, too chicken for that even before arther.
    You have a real talent, just wish we could convince you eh!

    Hi Chris,

    Tell you what you do my swimming and I'll do your tree swinging...... I'm often a little too good at tree swinging :wink: It was a better day :D I sort of lost it yesterday...... I hid it so well eh? :oops: :oops: I used this actually to lift me up as well. Then the troughs are not frozen today :D:D:D:D:D I never knew how much ice breaking with a hammer (not forgetting a pounder) could take it out of you........... Glad you found the switch and its still there so you will find it again if not Velcro will give you a quick jump start. ((( ))) Cris xx

    Hi Page,

    Can we do a really intricate one please? I've read up on them...... I shall set aside some long grass as a practice area soon :wink: You ok up there? Bubbles and ((( ))) and sun xx
