Electronic Peddlers

A Roto-dent toothbrush of mine
Once said “Where the heck did you dine?’
there’s bits of Swiss chard
Next too white fried cod
And pumpkin seeds by your canine?

Just then the cell phone ding-a-lings
calls out “I’ve got just the thing!’
that new water pick
will soon do the trick
“Howdy-Do DING-A-LING-ling?”

I need to take some lessons from you or one of the other true poets on this amazing site! You all seem to pull these off with the greatest of ease. You should see me write Form poetry! It is a joke. While, with poetry (that many don't consider poetic at all, like Verse, FreeVerse) I can rip em' from my ole ribcage in 3-5 minutes anytime! Go figure. You inspire many. Thank you! 7 up from me For your share!

Funny....tis the season for pumpkin seeds...I have a pet chicken and she is worse than the dog about eating anything. She ate my decorative pumpkin for the seeds.
