A Short Leafy Tale
Sun Dec 15 2002

This year's seed catalogs are arriving in the mail.
The latin names went to my head !

Herbage Verbiage


A greedy, globular gazania
Grabbed ground gratuitously.

An insincere irked Ipomoea
Inched incrementally inward.

A leafy licentious Linium
Lapped liquids lewdly.

A whining weepy Willow
Waxed quixotic weakly.

A hideously hateful Helianthus
Heaped hatracks heathward.

A fully foliaged Philodendron
Freaked a fractured philosopher.

Seven swanky Scabiosa
Slurpped slugs surrepticiously.

A rotund rosa rugosa
Reaped regrets rigorously.

A really warped writer
Wrote words ridiculously !

    Liked the poem, maybe its true what my tutor E says inspiration can be found in the most unlikely places! AS for the book shop, I used to think it would be groovy but I didn't take into account Christmas shoppers in foul tempers, I know the cover is green people who NEVER know what the title is and then get ratty with you for not being able to find the book they want, oh and small children wrecking the shelves you have spent two hours tidying! Still it beats Maccy D's but thank you for the comments it's always nice to know that someone's reading.
