An Emotional Farewell

so long, all the gilling snafferwisps I wish I could say it was but those times we hodded abreem shook, then circled befrayingly yet alas, when all is, and all was I wish I could say we’ll hoot again bray the broons and be bonning but for now, so long my snafferwisps, so long and may the muddled seeve midded

ooh I'm glad you asked, blather is just a word for jibberish, meaningless banter and wight is a ghoulish, demonic being so I combined the two! Snafferwisp I just made up becasue it sounded funny. I was going for nonsense words when used could invoke meaning and emotion, I hope it worked , I'll let readers judge that.

No, just a silly poem. I'm into using made up words at the moment, I feel they convey a sense of meaning and emotion even though they are nonsense, I'm quite intruiged by that idea. I only post occasionally these days, maybe not for a week or a month but I'm still here. Thanks Deb
