This Is Silly

to scribble or to scrabble
or to play the game with purpose
or maybe  to stay on the periphery
and occasionally have a dabble
is of itself a benefit
to those who merely babble

Cute!

I liked the wittiness and succintness. I also liked the alliteratin, with all the "ables" and "ibles". Is the title refering to the poem's content or to the people who you are writing about? Nasmaste, Jhena

I was in a silly mood

when writing this short piece, hence the title! It isn't about anyone really, I just sillied it outta me! Really happy you liked! Love, Light and Laughter to All Beings Namaste, Lenny

Aren't ...

abbles wonderful! A spot of fun, here! I hope your smile was as wide as mine (on reading) when in the midst of writing this piece, and then in the subsequent posting. Brief. And blessed by brevity. You've a way with words, as at times do I. Like appreciates like. As does a whole, exuberant life. Thanx much, Brother (Sometime) Wordmonger Chuck
