Sign What Next

the Septet II is a fun, interesting form of English origin: it is composed of 7 lines with a syllabic count of 3-5-7-9-7-5-3, basically unrhymed... "Sign here please", what the sergeant said. Conscripted to the army "How I wish that I was dead" ...he said barbers gave me a bald head life no longer best. Sign what next! Penned on Msy 19 2015 By Seren Roberts Contest : give me a sign.

Ha! Ha! This reminds me of when my youngest son joined the army without thinking everything through. He was quite upset with himself! Congrats on your win, Seren! Love, Kim

When my son was at school he refused to do the 'army day' on principle that it was a recruitment drive and was given written work to do as a 'punishment' - he was made up he is academic lol - the teacher wasn't happy I had backed him up to do it but he was 15 and able to make his own decisions:-) Hugs jan xx
