Anne amongst friends stays
Newfoundland cliffs and water
refreshing thoughts bring

refreshing thoughts bring
Ringo survives the diner
V calls Him Pumpkin

( I thought that might make a couple of thousands laugh)

V calls Him Pumpkin
most people calling Him G~d
remember the choice

remember the choice
sacred or profane for all
and mixture for some

(the only attraction of this thread of gentle clichés is that no-one is in control, the next poster can divert your path completely. rather misses the point, Lizzy to post 27 in a row of your own)

this thread is a mixture of good and bad, (unlike Jack). it is good if it entertains and people enjoy each others company. it is bad because it makes it even less likely that people will take time to write a proper poem. gentle clichés are so easy to write

but you need to at least follow the protocol and let others in to continue or divert your theme as they choose. you should show good manners and patience and not answer your own ******** posts!

["the only attraction"... "the gentle cliches"... "rather misses the point"... depends on one's individual point, as clearly already shown... and to count hyperbolically, misses the, but reenforces your own]

don't answer your own

[Oooooo... Harry S]

"proper poem" haikus
specific rules all their own
find them and follow

by answering your own posts you stop others playing the game. the game here is to follow up sympathetically or militantly someone else's writing. the simple clichés are a welcome challenge to answer with more creative diversion and perversion. you deprived me of the chance of dealing with yours.
