Ode to a bored bard - any offers

(did anyone else notice the thread disappear???)

Well, I’m not bored,
but I am astounded.
Read the post and chuckled
and then it got impounded… :roll_eyes:
They vanished from before my eyes
those words of cheer and fun.
Got me thinking…
What on earth
Has this poor fellow done?.
Don’t mute your post !
Let frolics flow…
We need a little laughter.
Please think again.
Have another go…
Let’s be “happy ever after”

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

It’s still there (albeit deleted by the OP) until it falls of the listing in 24 hours…

yes, but it won’t let me post my reply to him… which is why I amended my wording slightly and have put it here…
Surely we must have some other Bards amongst us…
@Tony_Sinclair_Kirk you are missed…

Hi Stella

The world according to the bored bard

A funny thing happened to me

on the way to the bar

Usually, I would just sit quietly in the corner

thinking about gravity and wondering

If it really had a hold on me

“ I noticed that….”

Some holidaymakers

had installed themselves

for an evening of Frenglish chit-chat

in an atmosphere that was fuelled with alcohol

peanuts crisps, small black coffees

flat white coffees, short tall coffees

long tall shorts, and the obligatory

you must be havin’ a latte mate

while pouring over

the what shall-we-do -tomorrow’s

origami folded crisp-edged

leaflets from the tourist office.

I closed my eyes.

On opening them all the tourists

were plugged into eco car charging points.

They were all quite still

Their marbled eyes lit up like ball lightning

Rolling up and down

And from side to side

I reminded myself that maybe

I have been overdoing it lately.

@billybutcher can it be restored?

Try that, although we now seem to have three threads on the subject.

ah… the OP started a new one so now there are three of them :slightly_smiling_face:
Perhaps @Tony_Sinclair_Kirk might indicate if he wants the other two to be deleted by you so they are removed from the system?

At the moment we have this one, started by Stella and the two started by Tony - if there are no objections I’ll delete this thread (if I can) and whichever @Tony_Sinclair_Kirk indicates he does not wish to keep.
