coyleys 10 #13 Posted January 31, 2008 Excellent Shoeshine, as it is the last verse I don’t think a Demotivator is necessary, but there is plenty of room for more, I’ll keep coming back with an input from time to time. ---------------- Thinking about it, if we all pull our finger out, we may give Samuel T Coleridge a run for his money. “Delusions of Grandeur” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
coyleys 10 #14 Posted February 1, 2008 Poetry is one thing I have never been able to write. That is just what I replied to a post many months ago, then Manterspook had a go at me, saying…. “Rubbish! I bet you could. These sort of limerick type poems almost write themselves once you think of two words that rhyme” He was right of course (God! I hate smart arses) now I can’t leave it alone. Have a go MW you may be surprised, anyway it’s all good practice. You’ll be surprised just how many closet poets there are out there.

sauerkraut 10 #16 Posted February 18, 2008 Well done, Coyleys, it's coming together quite nicely isn't it? Looks like we could do with some verses on adult working life, and possibly retirement, but I'm lacking any inspiration at the moment...

Why thanks SK, that's really good of you to offer. Unfortunately; I’m stuck at the moment, especially as Sheppo has just summed up my entire working life in one verse, and as for retirement, if I get there, I’ll have plenty to write about “Wine, Women, Songs, Gout, hernia, Piles, writers elbow, I may even write a little romantic verse about my in growing cloisters.
