Has Anyone Seen My Funny

Has anyone seen my funny I must have put it down Or did it seek a new life On the other side of town Has anyone seen my funny I’ve hunted far and wide It could shape my next sentence Were it here by my side Has anyone seen my funny It may have come to harm I’d rather like to find it Cos it’s kinda my right arm Has anyone seen my funny I need it back, okay? You see, without my funny There isn’t much to say

Terry….l sent you a comment on this poem which isn't here so l am wondering who l sent it too!?! What l said is….you my funny friend will never lose your funny ever as you are one of if not the funniest person on here. Your cheeky little trickster of a muse is probably hiding somewhere having a good old laugh! He will be back! Debx

Thanks, Deb. I know you’re right, but it’s a drag. Barely finished anything so far this year. Even tried one of my nonsense writes (which usually help) but, right now, I can’t even write nonsense……. Oy! I heard that…

I like this wistful sigh of a poem, Terry. Sonds like you may be down-in-the-mouth a bit here. My recommendation: Read some online jokes. All sorts of websites to choose from. After you see how unfunny most of them are, your 'funny' will come racing back. Say Cheese, gw

Not down-in-the-mouth, GW. Just as cheerful as ever. Just a weird thing that, as with previous blocks, I can’t find that third line, or in some cases the punchline. I’ve lost count of the unfinished writes that have gone nowhere. I know from experience that something will go ‘PING’ in my head sometime or other… just hoping the wait isn’t too long ;-)
