Life is Fluffy.
Or Pretty
Absurd.
A perfect idea
Becomes a captured bird
In the hand.
Or a strange kerfuffle
Flying around and around
Like a cartoon
Circling, tweeting
Bird band.
Two Looney Tunes.
Twit and Twitter
(Their names)
Flutter and Flitter
(Not their names).
Around the brain.
Searching for appropriate words.
Only two
Will do.
To rhyme with bush.
No rush.
Once written?
‘Shush! Stop!’
Develops.
Hush drops,
Envelops.
Get Smitten.
‘Oooooh!
Lush.
They fit in.
They’re sublime.
Quick!
Get them on line.’
Fishing for compliments?
No.
Not one’s intent.
Don’t like
Or enjoy seeing people
Struggle.
To reply.
To invent.
It’s nicer seeing people
In front of your eyes.
With an act of yelling
‘Surprise! Surprised?’
‘Well yes!
It’s great to see you’.
Is the spoken word.
‘I’ve been so lonely’
The thought unheard.
Online Replies?
Nah!
They’re just disguise.
Real reality of life?
Is where people cry.
So.
Don’t Juggle or
Struggle for words.
That’s absurd.
‘Oh! What to say?’
You say.
‘Platitudes?
No, that’s just rude?’
Time ill-spent
Doesn’t return.
It’s a waste of life.
Simpler to learn
That sometimes
It requires no thought.
No strife.
Because niceness
Can’t be bought.
Just a thought.
At least
Push the heart.
With a simple
‘Like’.
That way?
No harm
Takes part.
