A Fly In My Poetry Soup

There’s a fly in my poetry soup It turquoise tries to throw me for loop With negative Nancy words of discontent Or fuschia fancy lines littered dissent Poetry Soup is for friends for fun Lighten up you’re under gold sun Be green seed no need to be a gun Firing off rudely red notes to anyone I learned my lesson in faith Let the negative Nancy fade For there will come a denim day They’ll meet their own match hurray

Yup. Sooner or later, everyone gets a fly on his/her screen. Just wipe it off, block it out, and resume your journey in this, our Garden of Eden... ~ Gershon

Amen to 'fancy litter' bound for rim-shot receptacles! ~ "Two men looked thru prison bars, one saw mud, the other- stars." - Dale Carnegie ~ Thanks for the reminder. ~ Keep looking up!
