I Like It!

MELLOW YELLOW MONDAY

I LIKE IT!

Chicken-talk but, oh dear me,

Is that a grain of truth I see?

If I drop my Blog into conversation,

Whatever may be my motivation,

A glassy look comes into the eyes

Of those I consider kind and wise!

They shuffle their feet and look away

And can't think of anything to say!

'Have you read it?' I say, all eager,

But their response is really meager!
If they, brusquely, answer 'No!'
I haven't anywhere to go!

'Sometimes' some mutter, all of a fluster,

With all the enthusiasm they can muster.
'Once or twice' may be the reply;
That means they've read me but wonder why!
'Not recently'; oh what a cop-out!
I'm talking to someone who's a drop-out!
'What's a Blog?'; an honest reaction,
But not one that gives me satisfaction!

One either Blogs or one does not;

Some people just don't care a jot,

While others think the human race

Resides up there in cyberspace!

I try to bite my tongue at times;

I will not mention RinklyRimes!

But then my very real fixation

Slips into my conversation!

I could kick myself for being rash,

So self-centred, smug and brash,

And I make-up my mind, with might and main.....

I'll never mention it again!

But...'Have you read my Blog yet?' Damn!

That's how very loose-lipped I am!

As to the other hen's riposte,

I'll simply say to her

'Get lost!'
