Spell Check All Thymes

A poem rime tail about a bushy tale
Shod a squirrel down in the dale
My words dew knot look write.

I shod hymn running on a big offence
I’ll yews Spell Check so this due make cents
I squeezed… with hymn in my site.

He jumped high and came to a halt.
Flipped over, dune a summer-salt
Leigh dead write their.

He was a phat one to be shore
I only kneaded to get won moor.
I like squirrel better then hair.

    I meant to say- To CHOOSE a winner... or to HAVE CHOSEN a winner. Instead my mind and fingers momentarily lost contact with each other.

    Thanks Linda. All of the poems were well written. To chose a winner would have been as difficult as it was for each poet to write. YarnSpinner

    Thank you Mandy; Your poem, I’ll Meet You In My Dreams is very well written. I've many times felt poetry visions must circulate throughout the universe! When a writer locks on to a mental vision, as it passes, they may well interpret it with word differently, but very similarly to that written by someone else distant.

    I guess Anne, it is why I choose mainly to write Ballads. For me poetry should tell a story. Thanks; YarnSpinner

    Check out antway. What did I tell you. Bob

    I can tell you one thing for certain; writing a poem like that is a heck-of-lot harder than one would think. One thing about spell checking though; it will tell you everything is spelled correctly. ...but when you re-read you can continue to overlook wrong words used, because you know what it is you want to say antway.
