A bit of off handed humor to thank a friend for paying for another year of Authors Den, so you are all STUCK with me for at least another year...! ed


Poem Artwork

Cracked…


 


I speak herein of a friend,


He is closer than that of one that is pretend,


His psychological make up is one that no one can comprehend,


Yes, he is crazy, insane, unsound; unable is he to mend…


 


I speak herein of a close buddy,


He does own a boat with a little cuddy,


To get to it on the river, you have to be willing to get muddy,


He could be considered quite mostly a fuddy duddy…


 


I do not speak herein of a person I know not,


He does consider his boat of twenty-three feet, a yacht,


I have to say that for the most part he is nothing more than an old sot,


Corona being his liquid of choice, with a twist of lime,


Never does he when imbibing, act like a slime,


Oh I thought you would have known by now,


My friends name is that of Scott, so sublime…

OH, how lovely and how fine... I was "sponsored" once too, and the pure, beauty of that act fills me still. I'm once again looking at the door, as we speak. Perhaps, the quarterly pay would work. I'm thrilled to know that you are able to stay, my funny, sweet friend. Your friend, Scott, is not only kind, he's smart! (grin) katy xox.
