Gibberwacky

 ”Gibberwacky” may not appear to make much sense, but that is because it is, like, profound and stuff. You could try reading this poem first. It still won’t make any sense, but you’ll have a deeper sense of appreciation for my artistic genius.

‘Twas midnight, and the sleepy Hails
Did yawn and fidget in her chair.
All blurry were the words on-screen
And ’twas getting hard to care.      
                     *   *   * 
“Beware the Gibberwack, my dear!
The grammar mistakes, speling gone rong!
Beware the punctuation errors, and shun
Apostrophe’s where they don’t be’long!”    
                       *   *   * 
She took her coffee mug in hand:
Long time the sleepiness she fought.
So rested she upon the sofa
And kept on blogging; she blogged a lot.  
                        *   *   *    
And, as in drowsy thought she sat,
The Gibberwack, like sleeping gas
Came sneaking through the open door
And left her quite aghast.      
                *   *   *
Alas! Alack! The Gibberwack
Left Hails with drowsiness filled.
And when her eyes re-opened
Her coffee all was spilled.      
                *   *   *
“And, has thou slain the Gibberwack?
Why no! He took you out!”
The Gibberwack had got her words
And she knew not what she wrote about.  
                          *   *   *
‘Twas midnight, and the sleepy Hails
Did yawn and fidget in her chair.
All blurry were the words on-screen
And ’twas getting hard to care.

Think Fluffy Pink Thoughts

I could hardly get out the front door this morning because of all the Valentine’s cards, cheesy gifts, single red roses and tacky teddy bears piled up on the mat. I wish people would stop sending me such foolish, heartfelt, unrestrained expressions of their love and affection. It just becomes overwhelming, to be honest.

*sigh*

A Valentine’s Day Poem For My Blog Readers

Although I’ve never met you
Nor heard your soothing voice,
Your presence on my humble blog
Doth fairly make me rejoice.
I may never know your real name
Or the place where you reside,
But when I see ‘New Comment’
I feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
So, to you, dear reader,
Happy Valentine’s Day!
My love for you is like a terrorist group
It never goes away.

Aye. Have a good one, and don’t choke on your Lovehearts or anything…
