More Fun Than a Slinky
Wittiness is his forte
Always a surprise ending
And what he had meant to say
Not always what he’s thinking
Of the sonnet he is king
I wish I could write as he
Does with poetry that rings
One liners that sting like a bee
Spying his link in Mr. Linky
I must go see what he’s shared
So much more fun than a slinky
What serious subject he’s dared
To joke about today
In a most unexpected way

Yesterday’s prompt at dVerse Poets Pub was to pick a favorite dVerse community poet (or other poet, but I stuck with dVerse folks) and write a poem about them or as a tribute to how you appreciate their writing. The only rule is not to mention the poet, so I haven’t.

You have stumped me, Linda!

I love the rhyme. Fun!
Lovely! Such an incredible tribute Linda 🙂
Ah – that made me smile. It must have been fun writing too…..
Almost as much fun as reading this poet’s poetry. 😉
Love this, Linda! 🙂
Ha yes I know at least one poet that I admire for his wit.. and sonnet skills… 🙂
It could (should) be you!
It could have been, but is not. 😉
