For many long years at a time
I’d try to write poems that rhyme.
My girlfriend said “Stop!”
These attempts you must drop.
Your work is so poor it’s a crime.

Hi Ray - I'm certainly not a Poet and I know it; just a 'Schtick-Short-Writer' nothing more. So nice that you are scrolling through my 'Shorts'. My wife was from London via Ireland and a visa client at our law firm. See 'Last Valentine' about her. HollyWeird has changed drastically since your young family visit decades ago. Not a lot of visitors of late with the Writers Strike and such unrest; a shame. *I've subscribed to you with pleasure and would love to see an original non-fiction piece from you among all of the "Creative" new ways to write Writer's among us.
