Oh Dear

Oh dear what have I done?
I posted a poem to PS,
And only posted that one
Looking at PS, the very next day
I saw three copies of the Poem
Oh dear, what can I say?
I don't know how that happened,
I haven't a clue.
Am I losing my marbles,
Or is it you?
Did you read all three copies?
Or was it four?
I'll keep you posted,
With errors galore!

Perhaps Soup Censors are trying to ensure everyone reads your "approved" post? Aloha!

It could have been a glitch in the works, which gave me more confidence than usual. Also was a good example to show that machines make mistakes too.

(chuckling) Shirley, I wouldn't worry about it. There are occasional unexplainable glitches. Just, perchance, your poem was worth three readings!!!

I am pleased my poem made you laugh, Milt. It made me have second thoughts about opening the page after that in case it was still printing more of them. As we age, we seem to make so many silly errors I was delighted it wasn't mine for a change.

It seems to happen to a lot of folks. I've seen as many as 5 copies of a poem posted. Must be a glitch in the matrix

Thank you, Jeff. So nice of you to comment, I always think it must be something silly I have done, it's good to know that it is likely to be a glitch. Take care, Shirley
