Just maybe I could mention

you might adopt my convention

to play the Twinkling Onlines first

and give Blanks last attention

Otherwise a waiting  game just

keeps play in suspension

Any other ploy I feel must

baffle comprehenson !

An auld Scottish Rhymer "Excuse Me"

Succinctly advised on Game Queues, see.

His epic in dust is ...

- Poetic injustice -

Too clever by half, 'twas a doozy.

 

‘tis no’ fair!

Ha ha, very entertaining xqsme, especially when it comes to being a battle of wits with that rogue artfizz ... perhaps you should fire off more doggerels and jingles that'll give him shingles

Whenever I see the name Teja

I’m instantly struck down with fear

You can’t make a poem

‘Bout someone’s whose home

Is two thousand miles from here.

 

Whenever I meet the name Teja

I instantly reach for my ledger

It baffles a layman

To locate the Cayman

You don’t know either, I’ll wager.

 

Whenever I hear the name Teja

I instantly reach for my cigar

I don’t even smoke

It acts as a cloak

What am I hiding? Go figure!

So your a poet as well now Arty : ^ )


Is the poem  about waiting for people to make their move, who insist on playing lots of games at once Xqsme? Its very good and may  I say I quite agree its a bloody disgrace... : ^ )

Whew, I was lucky..Smile

It could have been a table, a thing of fable,

He'd cobble, from facts unstable (sorry my poetry is limited to rhyming couplets)
