Victory Verse for Molly



5 more posts and then it is done
Nabloblahblah will have run its run
Will I be sad, will I be down?
Will I be wearing a worried frown?

I think, dear reader, that the answer is no
For inspiration has hit an all-time low
Me marbles are rattling, me eyes are bloodshot
The hour has arrived to take to the cot.

25 long nights have seen me toil
Mumbling and fumbling with the midnight oil
I should have said this, I should have said that
Conundrums, indeed, they'd baffle a cat.

For as you may know, I promised the Molly
That once again, I would, indulge in this folly
Posting and blathering for the month of November
Was 2007 that hard to remember?

But, Molly my dear, the plan has succeeded!
The kick in the pants, that was very much needed
Has taken me back to the pleasures of reading
The blogs of the many, so worthy of heeding.

So when the days of November are nowt but a dream
And my life has returned to its normal regime
I'll be writing less often but reading much more
Having all of the pleasure and none of the chore!

It sounds as though you have an extremely busy and at times trying life, but I do hope you'll still make entries in the blog now and then. I miss you when you're gone.

I don't feel too victorious, but I'm tickled to have some verses dedicated to the Nablopomo struggle! Has J. Cosmo Newbery been tutoring you on the side??

Warty ... Thank you for that .. Sometimes when I am blogging I wonder am I connecting at all with the people who visit! Its nice to know that I am!

Molly ...no tutoring ... all my own drivel!

May 2010 be all that you wish it to be. hugs birdie
