This

Fresh as a strawberry
Sharp as a lime
This golden moment
held perfect in time

A fruity companion
so good, so it goes
to sample a bowl
of my love potatoes

A seed replanted
a nurturing food
All that is needed
Continue the brood

Clear as the wind
Startling, like rain
Held perfect in time
to begin time again

That's my poem. You stole it from me.. Ok just kidding.

What a lovely simple poem.

"A fruity companion

Ha. You have love potatoes.
I have love handles haha.
I know I need to stop it.

I just couldn't resist that line

"sample a bowl of my love potatoes"

Had to jump through hoops to make it fit. There is something lascivious about it but you just can't put your finger on why.

How about:

In the Walnut of my mind
Through the Apple of my eye
Past the Lemons of my soul
To the Kumquat of my thighs.

I want to play with your Lichees
Stroke the firmness of your Fig
Run my fingers through your Pear
Shine your Apple with my wig

:-)

It should be grapefruit in the last line by the way. I don't know how to edit posts so I can't change it.

Hi K,

The ideas that come to mind are simplicity, purity and clarity, you've so captured the moment of Now.

Thank you.

Loving you,
EJ

Hi Enocia,

Yep, it's nice to use the simple approach once in a while. I'm getting a bit bogged down with these 9 verse things at the moment. They get a bit heavy after a while.

Having said that I've just finished one that I really like called 'A cloud of Oranges (I must be getting a fruit fetish). I think I'll post it later then kick back with some short stuff for a while.

I was thinking of starting a comedy script blog as well, short sketches, etc. Might be fun

Are you up for it as a collaborative effort?

You too shy, if you're game.

K you are awesome. I love you humor. I come here just to laugh out loud.


And no editing the post for some reason. Just gotta be more "care full.."

Or delete it and start over haha. That's what I do sometimes.

I meant edit comments not posts (you're right I'll have to be more careful, I'll have to wear a comment condom).

Glad you liked the ditty, I might add a verse and post it as a pome, dedicated to you.

'The Lemons of my soul' is a line that occured to me while I was shopping today. I wanted two lemons to make a tarragon and lemon sauce to go with some Salmon and the shop near me didn't have any singles, only bags of twelve. I had to buy twelve lemons in the middle of summer, I thought, 'have to seel your soul for a lemon these days. Hence, 'the lemons of my soul'. I wonder if anyone realised they were eating a faustian bargain?

Could have been worse I suppose, a catering size tin of baked beans, for instance.

Comedy script blog, there are several ways we could approach it. It might be pretty (ever the optimist) though more likely to be irreverent, mildy offensive (in the bestest possible taste of course, he lies), but with a few of us banging away at it, it should be suitably inventive to make sure that we offend everybody in an equitable and fair fashion (including ourselves).

I've got a couple of scenes to start us off... God has decided to go corporate and bring 'Eternity Inc.' into the 21 century. Princes Di is the health and safety officer who is getting a little concerned about the working conditions in hell... Etc... Otherwise we can develop something from scratch.

I'm a frustrated comedienne, me. I'm definitely up for it.

I can just see it now, the blog equivalent of Jongleurs. Haha.

Live at the comedy blog.

Saturday night blog.

You've got me really excited, K.

Love EJ :-)

Ooer!!! Quick, pass me the viagra inhaler and the fishnet wellingtons).

I'll set up a blog today and post some samples on it. We can work out how to format it when we have it up (oops! twice in one comment, I should be in porn films) ;-)

Hahaha, oo-er missus. ;)

Look forward to it, I mean the blog. :-)

The addy is:

Once we get sorted we can delete the blog and set it up properly with joint profiles, etc.

I left a comment with a breif explanation.

Just a few set up scenes really.

See what you think.
