Gosh I've just arrived here

Welcomed through the door

Not used to your poetic world

(Come from distant shore)

 

My profile shows my mind

At work, what it can do

I've also put a pic in

So you can see me to

 

I've also seen a pic

Of one Brian Maryon

He really doesn't scare me

He seems to be quite fun

 

(Lost my train of thought …Now where was I?)

 

I can take a while to

Get to understand

Is he joking, is he serious?

How do I take this man?

 

I'm rough around the edges

(Don't turn around and leave)

I offer compensation

My heart is on my sleeve

 

I've seen our poems whooshing

Whooshing. Flying by

Miss one? See my profile

Peruse them where they lie

 

My pen it will write comedy

And verse 'bout sadness, strife

And all the small complexities

Which go to making life

 

I do not like long poems

I fall asleep halfway

So now I'll go and stop this

And let you go your way

 

But if perchance you think

I might be worth a follow

Just keep looking out for me

Whooshing down 'blog-hollow'
