To All Your Content Read, Before...

A song redone

To all your content read before

and content yet to read, for sure;

I'm glad you came along

(Afraid I'm in the wrong),

Creators that I've read, before.

~

To all the writers I know best

especially to you, confess

Your writing helps me grow,

To you a lot I owe,

Creators that I've read before.

~

The winds of stress are always blowing

and every time I tried to read

The winds of stress continued blowing

and I didn't do the deed.

~

To all the writers in my life

I hope you do not share my strife

I'm glad you came along

I hope I still belong

Creators that I've read before.

~

To all that content I don't yet see

I'll get there once my time is free

Those plans are in my heart

I'm raring, just can't start

Have mercy whilst I write this plea?

~

Yes, you Creators I've not read

Your content before me- what a spread!

Hang on, I'll soon read more

Leave comments? Of course! Sure!

Your words will leave my soul well fed.

~

Now, the winds of stress keep blowing

and every time I tried to read

The winds of stress continued blowing

and I don't do the deed.

Apologies to Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson for the perfect hash-up I've made of their song. Enjoy the original in this performance from 1983.

    I enjoyed singing this in my head. (Aloud would have been better, but Pam would probably have made faces and stuff.) A very creative apology. There seems to be a current trend for this kind of thing. Maybe it's the season,,,
