Just a bit of fun. I opened up my WordPress as I wanted to write a poem as a bit of light relief over the full on couple of weeks I have been through. The beckoning, flashing title at the top made me smile and I thought I would see if I could do soemthing with it. “Title” flashed at the top I thought it as good as any The words rushing through my mind Were fast, furious and many But what to write and what to say to do justice to a resounding Success The word I had chosen to sum up my theme It was soooo full of zest Indeed. nothing could be found That would make sense Neither hidden nor plainly To see No effervescence from my fingers would bubble floating up with imagination. The name of the poem itself had to be its legacy No champagne sparkles No bubbling wit No matter what, nothing would fit Dejected, despondent, denied and done in I could not seem to get the words flowing That expressed the vital meaning from my TITLE. ©️Stuart Patterson 2018
