  • Is Yahoo having a problem?

    Is Yahoo having a problem,I just received 10 points,

    Are those guys out the back smoking on some joints?

    Can someone else use my avatar?

    If so, it just upped my score

    This is a mystery, the question I have never seen

    And to the one who asked it, I don't mean to be mean.

    Others are being deleted,thumbs down all the way.

    I must be "very special", what else can I say.

  • Have you had any wealthy relatives die lately?

    So many of my unknown relatives have died

    I didn't know or even cried.

    They went to their fate all over the earth

    Didn't even know we were related by birth.

    All so wealthy with no wills made

    Taxes and all their bills were paid.

    I'm next of kin they tell me

    Just contact them and big money I'll see.

    Four times a day in my spam

    No ones original with their scam.

    Barristers,lawyers,accountants and such

    Bank managers,associates it's just too much

    Delete, delete here I go again

    I'd shoot them all, but end up in the pen.

    Now that I've got this off my chest

    I need to lay down and take a rest

    Blood pressure up,hissing and swearing

    I know you all really aren't caring.

    My frustrations I just had to share

    Delete me, delete me, I don't care.

  • Will we being Dancing with the Stars?

    When we all go to the planet Mars

    Will we be dancing with the stars?

    I'm practising my samba and fox trot

    With that dance you jump along a lot.

    The samba means you have to be able to swivel your hip

    I hope my sequined dress doesn't rip.

    Keep practising all my friends

    At my age, I'll have to pack "Depends".

  • Do you feel like I do about Autumn?

    The fall is here, time to get to work

    Around the corner winter does lurk.

    Leaves to rake,eaves and gutters to clean out

    Rinse out the leaves stuck in the spout.

    Caulking to be added to windows and doors

    There is no rest from the unending chores

    Slim-my hosta leaves,wet grass to put in a bag.

    Trellis to be secured, that roses made sag.

    Frost has done it's damage to the beautiful deck pot.

    Have you ever smelled the earth of the flowers as they rot?

    Patio furniture to be stored until the early spring

    Getting ready for the winter is a tiring thing.

    Got to go as there is so much to be done

    Who said Autumn could be so much fun?

    If you think I'm being an negative baby

    I'm not!--- well----! just a bit! ---maybe.

    I'm obviously in a depressing,ornery rut

    Aching muscles, Autumn is a pain in the butt.

    To-night I go to bed with Ben Gay

    Someone new to snuggle with, what can I say.

  • Has everyone else got "A Life"?

    Has everyone else got "A Life"?

    Are you a working man or a busy wife?

    Am I the only one on a Tuesday morn

    Sitting alone, bored and oh so forlorn?

    Come on girl,get away from the keys

    There are leaves to be bagged fallen from trees.

    Get your act in gear,there is work to be done

    Life is not all parties and made up of fun.

    Come on old girl, give your face a slap

    On second thought, I think I'll have a nap.

  • Have you won as many Lotteries as I have?

    I've won so many lotteries or inherited so much money I hear

    I'll not have time to visit Yahoo, anymore, I fear.

    Do you win as much as I do,at least three times a day

    Didn't know I was so important, what can I say,

    I'll be busy spending all my loot on luxuries galore

    A Mercedes, a yacht,a sable coat to drag on the floor.

    I won't have time to write a verse or a crappy poem

    I'll be travelling round the world,I never will be home.

    So Bonn Voyage, Adios Amego,Sayanara for now

    Shalom,Adieu, later baby and of course Chow

    But first of all I'll have to buy a dictionary, so that I can spell

    Being so rich and cultured is definitely going to be Hell

  • What does your crazy quilt of your life look like?

    A crazy quilt of my life would be wonderful for me to see

    No one else would have it, unique,one of a kind, Me

    The size would be queen and heavy to keep you warm,

    To wrap tight yourself in during a nasty storm.

    I would divide it up in sections, each a special place.

    Some would be tattered, some delicate Irish lace.

    The colours would go from dreary gray to bright sunshiny yellow

    There would be hues of all the blues,pinks some sharp, some mellow.

    Passionate reds throughout it all, forest greens everywhere you look..

    Areas would be black and white like the pages of my favourite book.

    Crazy, unique,over-stated it would definitely be

    After all, my crazy quilt is suppose to depict me.

  • Did I get it right this time?Is this a double acrostic?

    April comes, my favourite month by far.

    Having fun digging in the garden with care.

    Savouring the colour of my first tulip bulb

    Placing each seed carefully for you and I

    Row upon row, like a winding river

    Imaging the final look, the beautful sight.

    Never-ending blooms, down the garden path.

    Groups of people pass by to say hello.

    The neighbours have been inside all winter, gloves and mittens are off.

    Imagining their gardens in bloom, their grass so trim.

    Many hours of labour, I'll need to grow hosta

    Everything has a time, Oh Springtime is so much fun.

  • Did I Do Wrong?

    A major Boo-Boo I did make,

    A Yahoo violation I did break.

    I posted "Ode to Sandbox" in the wrong place

    Now with Yahoo Answers, I'm in disgrace.

    I just wanted him to know we really cared.

    Now with this, I'm really scared.

    So if I don't answer for quite awhile.

    Remember me with a smile.
