From Andrea With Zump

I am so dejected and stumped
On zoom (OMG) I’ve been dumped
There now is no doubt
The secret is out
My ego has truly been thumped

Funny buzzword Paul. The computer age has spawned a whole new dictionary, what? I hope you are feeling better now. SuZ

This is such a clever and exceptionally cute poem Paul, I have missed your superb poetry and wonderful comments and hope you and your family are well. I know enough about computers to keep afloat, but our disadvantage I would say is that a three year old could teach us more! Hugs, blessings and warm regards, Jennifer.

Thank you, Jenny. We have all tasted the bug at home; not Covid, but very similar symptoms. I was the last one to get it, but am now on the mend. ~ Warm regards & hugs // paul

It is great that Andrea’s poem inspired this. I hope this does not remain the way of the future. I prefer face to face contact. I had to laugh at your limerick Paul. This is a lot like being dumped in a text. How robot like. Lol Thanks for the laughter. Blessings xxoo

Thank you for the feedback, Connie. Like you, I much prefer 'face to face'; I'm hopeless on a phone, and have never been on zoom!! ~ Warm regards and goodnight, my friend. // paul
