Floating On A Raft

I've been in WOL a year now

Survived brimstone and fire

It's made me fitter, stronger

No way I'll skip, retire

Why do I like this platform?

'Cause I can ply my craft

Sometimes it comes out serious

Sometimes it comes out daft

Variety's the spice of life

Serious, comic, daft

I have all three-type poems

Riding on a raft...

Which floats around my hard drive

On a sea of bytes

Invention of technology

No currents, wavecaps white

(Electric currents?.....)

Clever Ruth.....

Philipos - Thalia is keen on your fishing idea. They don't have lakes on Mt Olympus so it's all new to her. Just have to caution her about the byting electric eels....

You could put out a rod and catch a Baramundi or two so as to celebrate. Good to share the dialogue over the past year. ?
