Com In 2 See It



J uniper berries and cockle shells
O ft' told tales and liberty bells
I n a nutshell, a site to behold
N othing beats stories, poetically told
P oetry matters and it's worthy to know
O pen for business and good for the show
E veryone's happy, no discouraging word
T ell me a good one, and I'll tell you I've heard
R ight and wrong written, and all in between
Y ou are the reason and I know what you mean
dot
C ome in and play with your pen in your hand
O n time and in sync with a definite plan
M oreover it's not over, it's only began

    What, this old clunker? Meh! She's just a site like any other that I've opted to partake in 7 days per week, week after week, month after month, year after year, 22 hours per day. I'm totally not hooked.

    Well, off to my Poetry.com Anonymous meeting. Sure hope they throw some elbow grease on that poetry.com nicotine patch. *scratch* :-P
