Where’d that poem go?
I know I had it here.
Shook the keyboard,
nothing fell out.
I looked under the mouse,
won’t mention what was there.
Ran my fingers through my beard,
just a few cracker crumbs from lunch.
I bet it’s hiding in the dictionary.
Wonder what I can do
to make it come out?

Don't ya just love it! I hate it when I compose a verse in my head while I am on my bike or in the surf . . . only to find when I get home that it has evaporated completely. Aaaarrgghhh! Good one.
<:o>
I know that feeling. Except for the cracker crumbs in the beard bit. Thanks for the chuckle!

Good question, Pat.
I liked hearing your voice.
Clever!! Witty and just so you!! To whip up feelings and thoughts like this!
Great way to start the day...
It helps to know that someone else is searching for their poem and I am not all alone :)
This made me smile!
This made me smile!

I don't know, but if you find it, see if you can find mine! I can't find mine, either, today. :)
If you turn your back, maybe it'll sneak out behind you then...
(or pretend to sleep, that'll wake it up for sure!)
Cool audio! Love your voice.
Pat...
this is all too familiar. Just this morning I had the same experience, and I said to myself... "let go, let God," and sure enough a poem appeared...
Pat,
Thanks for stopping over and leaving a comment.
Poems thought out away from pencil and paper are like ether, and evaporate just as quickly.
rel
force that poem out! you can do it! on the count of three...one two...three!
make me feel that the poem turned into the crumbs which you shook from the keyboard ........
:(
Very Creative!

I bet it's written on that coin you just pulled from behind my ear!
God, I love the way you think! I really need this poem today. Thank you for the quick tickle.

I carry paper everywhere just in case, I once lost a really good poem (well I think it was, I'll never know now) walking the kids to school. love this it describes the frustraition so perfectly
'tis the season of blank.

Camera Shy, now that's a thought...
Sue, I need one of those little tape recorders. But, I'd forget to turn it on, or erase what I had on it. Getting older sucks, somedays...
Inconsequential, or a blank season?
Grish, yeah, but it is frustrating!!
Dsnake, you found it!!! I knew somebody would.
Borut, I turned my back, pretended to sleep, pushed like I was in labor, wrung its neck, beat it with a hammer, then posted and Dsnake found it!!
Trinitystar, I'm still studying those crumbs. If I don't eat them for a snack, I might arrange then into a poem.
It has happened to me. Words form and when I sit down to write, my mind goes blank. I keep staring at the screen blankly..
Did the mouse nibble it?
More points to you..
Pat,
Very well done!
Made me laugh really hard!!!!!!!!!
And I liked the tone that went with it! Twas very cool...
Did you look in the freezer?
Reminds me of my how bad my short term memory is, and how stories are deposited in my memory like whisps of smoke...some leave...some stay.
Ah, Pat, that is somewhere we all have been.
just click it out.
Thanks for the second visit.
If you figure it out let me know...I've been bone dry!! Good one, Pat. Made me smile.
