A poet's dream?


Outline: More sheer nonsense
Why: Weakness of intellect
Review: Any
I'm not sure whether t'was fortune or fate
To have covert cannibals as neighbour
In the shape of Lawrence and his wife Kate.
Surely a dream for wordsmith to savour
Chance to become the Poet Laurie ate!

Author Explanation: I've been under a lot of strain.

Quirky and awash with humour. I really liked this light relief.
Good one.

Laughing Laughing Laughing And you said mine had impish undertones. Well, this is full in-yer-face pythonesque humour at its best. I'm no expert at classic apostrophisation (is that a word), but shouldn't it be 'twas? Also pluaralisation (also might not be a word) of neighbour would still work. Also, "wife Kate" might be better as "missus Kate".
Excellent!

Hi Brian,

BRILLIANT!

Smile ...I mean, who would have thought of that?
Well, certainly not me that's for sure. I do so envy all these people that are so damned clever with word play.

Carol.
