The Texting Test

I’ve hada few now in my life,Some arehappy. Some cause strife,Most aremerely info passed,Withsomething someone wants broadcast,A quick, efficientway to snoop,By askingquestions in your group,I’m sureyou’ve guessed by now, my friendsI’mtalking ‘bout the texts we send…Myson-in-law first showed me how,Soon chattingwas the cat’s meow,So easyjust to type, then send,No timeon “How are you’s” to spend,Just tothe meat and then it’s done,Ofconversation, there is none,Don’t getme wrong, I like to talk,While wesit, or take a walk,Butsometimes all you need’s a phrase,To informor to liaise…But I’llstop there, you’ve had enough,I’ll getto more important stuff,Thequestion asked, I’ll answer nextWhat hasbeen my favourite text?There’vebeen so many, long and short,Some makemy cry, some make me snort,Yes, Iwould have to say that’s hard,Perhaps I’llleave it to The Bard,For ‘brief’and ‘clever’ are a hit,And: ‘Brevityis the soul of wit!’

Karen asks, "Write for me, please?"We write because we like to please!And we love her, you know that’s true,So this is what we writers do . . .We craft a poem based on a theme,With pencils, sharp, and eyes agleam,Each month we write and have such funWe can't wait for another one,With TEXTS this month, how did I do?Please go and see the others, too:Baking In A TornadoMessymimi’sMeanderings
