Collaboration

What is collaboration? Admonition or abomination? If well written they can be words of joy. If not, just some words to be employed. Does it have meaning or is it idle banter? Meaning moves it like riding at cantor. With no meaning the words won't bounce off the floor, Scurrying about, looking for the door. "Two heads are better than one", goes the old saw, So collaboration makes the words get up without flaw. They mingle and join in several people's choice, Like the wondrous sound of a chorus' voice. Sometimes I admit, the chorus can be off key. Or some sounds come out in an F instead of an E. But the collaboration will join in the making it pure and Angelic song will become enured. So, take these words and collaborate with me, What sort of witty thoughts can I get from thee? Ones that will make a chorus sing a tune with relish, Your words will be the only things that this will finish.

I am not legally aloud to sing, indeed a not sought finish such an attempt would bring. I well recall the great effort it took to write my son's first sentence in his baby book. Recorded for eternity our his words to always sting, "Mama, don't sing". I was gone, came back and thought you gone, so let us talk! I should have written you a Soup message, and now that I know you ARE here, I shall - just have to wait cause I have things to goof up and people to annoy today. Glad finding was had!

If my words and yours should someday mingle,/ their meaning would cause my heart to tingle/The efforts of two collaborative minds/will be written in the ink that binds... A cleverly written and interesting rhyme, Dan.
