Episode 385: An Ode to Dads. — June 21, 2015

Episode 385: An Ode to Dads.

Although my Dad is sadly no longer with us, I wanted to write a little poem as my tribute to him, and all the other lovely dads on Father’s Day.

A Dad is always there for you

To protect, and keep you from harm

A Dad is there to dry your tears

And hold you in his arms.

A Dad is there to help you

When you wobble on your bike

As well as vet your partners

None of whom he likes!

A Dad loves to take his kids out

To the park or perhaps the beach

He is there to remove the spider

That has made you scream and screech!

A Dad is very precious

In so many different ways

Treasure each and every moment

Not just on Father’s Day

Episode 290: Ode To Blogging From A-Zed — April 16, 2015

Episode 290: Ode To Blogging From A-Zed

I always love a challenge

A chance to use my head

I joined two friends and signed up

For the Blogging from A to Zed!

Now it seems to make things harder

You ought to have a theme

So as, I love words so much

I thought that could be my scheme!

I’m more than halfway through now

And it’s really been a blast

I’ve dug around and found some words

That I’ve rescued from the past.

So although I might be ‘flummoxed’

About the right one to choose

I have got ‘ample ‘amounts of ‘corny’ words

Even ‘nincompoops’ can use!

Episode 51: Ode to NaBloPoMo — November 20, 2014

Episode 51: Ode to NaBloPoMo

I set myself a challenge

To write a post a day

For the whole month of November

Well, I have a lot to say!

I started pretty strongly

My brain was in top form

The words were flowing freely

Was this going to be the norm?

I followed other bloggers

And commented on their work

So many talented people

Makes me feel like a jerk!

For I am still a novice

And have such a long way to go

My creative juices are ebbing

And it’s still NaBloPoMo!

I’ve looked for inspiration

But it hasn’t come my way

So now I’m going to struggle

To write a post a day!

I’m not going to fail this

I can’t, I’ve just begun

But these words of desperation

Means that today’s post has been done!
