Karen Jones Poet Rhyme

Peach Tea And Me

I have the attention span of a gnat
At times not even as long as that

So I found some online training game
That is supposed to help train my brain

Not sure it worked before l lost focus 
My muse came with hazel hocus-pocus 

You’d think she’d gift me great poetry
But instead I write about silly little me

Maybe I will have a cup of peach tea
Start anew footloose and fancy free

The hour is so late that it is early so
Guess I’ll have breakfast before I go

Duke Beaufort April 2, 2025 at 7:18 PM Karen too funny. I imagine this game started in the evening and ran through the entire night. Whatever goes on during that time, you seem to come up with some fun things to share with the rest of us. I hope you are feeling really good and just want to thank you for making me SMILE!! (When I say that, I mean something that is more than just an appearance) Karen Jones April 3, 2025 at 12:20 AM I often write when I’m feeling challenged or bored lol! This one was a result of writer’s block. My evening was uneventful save a cup of tea lol. Your comments warm my heart thank you dear Duke!

CayCay Godwin April 2, 2025 at 6:56 PM This reminds me of the silliness I often pen, like My, Myself and I, oh, lots - too many to remember. Not only are they fun to read, really enjoyed, but they're fun to write in the sense that one's focus is light & easy, not intent and counting syllables. Hope all is golden in your world ... CayCay Karen Jones April 3, 2025 at 12:17 AM Yes I poetic forms that are rigid are not my forte! I was under the weather and catching up now on comments here thanks dear CayCay.
