National Poetry Day 2013

Yes indeedy folks, today is 'National Poetry Day'

And everywhere I look I find people writing blogs in rhyme,
or even worse - some are toying with blank verse,
whilst those who read it, being of small wit,
respond with blank faces
And nod, as if the Emperor was really clothed!

But of course you won't find that here ;-)

Personally, I have always considered the Emperor's taste impeccable.

Me too, if not just a little wrinkled

You won't catch me attempting verse,
In prose I shall my mind immerse.

And still my tongue from naive rhyme,
How I wish it were a crime ;-)
