Foam Warrior

6 Oct

You may be a gentle soul, but let it not stop you from rising to life’s challenge when it arises.

Fight, even if only that you may reclaim your gentleness when the war is over.

    Love not only the simple yet meaningful words but the clever title as well!

    Wow. This is beautiful! 🙂

    Some of us are done with fighting
    Converting instead, to verse-reciting
    But when push comes to shove
    Then, it’s off with the glove
    Foam becomes flood to get the wrong-righting!

    DFSK: Clever! Oh my. 😳 *preens*

    Zarine: Thank you. 🙂 It’s driving me mad that I wrote “rising” and “arises” in the same sentence, but I’m determined not to let it bother me. I’ll get there. In about 37 years.

    Aunty G: I would expect no less, my fellow Leo
    Your no-nonsense spine you got to show
    First try with love
    But then yank off that glove
    You tell ’em there’s a line to toe!

    I have a proposal for you and Aunty G, a book of verses. I, for one, would pay to read the back and forth banter

  8. Aunty G October 11, 2013 at 8:28 pm #

    Why, thank you Chaipakoraandgupshup
    We Leos love to be buttered up
    So, book or not
    I’ll tell you what
    We’ll continue till you tell us to shurrup!

    Aunty G: That won’t do, oh no siree,
    Your limericks have spoilt me
    Add to your archive
    Churn out the five
    Regular comments just cannot be!

    alice: 🙂

    chaipakoraandgupshup: And I’ll tell you what,
    We’re a greedy lot
    Pay us in fritters
    And single malt bitters
    We’ll limerick on the spot. 😉

    Oh, what a come-back
    Okay, let’s attack
    Fritters AND pakoras
    Bitters on ‘modas’
    And hic, limericks we’ll never lack!

Here's a bar of chocolate. Now talk to me. :)
