Pop, Crackle and Snap

Pop, crackle and snap
         Pop goes the popcorn
         Crackle goes the fire
      Snap goes the mercury
         ~ Winter's gunfire

Should I laugh or cry? Maybe 'tears of joy' or some such... As for me, a little oil on the joints a.m. and p.m., a lube job every 4 months, and I still squeak. lol. ~ Greasy Wheel

Hello Gershon - Always is it amazing that the most brief entries have such impact and thought. Your entry before us proves that fact. Thank you for sharing your poetic talent with us. Enjoy the day and poetrysoup.

I am for converting 'Ars brevis' ('Art is short/brief,' old Latin saying -- Ars brevis, Vita longa...life is long) into 'Ars longa.' What say you, Lisa? Thank you so much for the encouragement, and have a Wonderful Friday, Gershon
