Below is a poem I just wrote for my mum
That Sir is publishable! (Seriously very, very good.)

Correct, crows are not ravens, but ravens are crows.

Well, I did spend 6 and a half minutes on it.

(Thanks though).

Ha! Too kind sir. Working from home at present.

Below is a poem I just wrote for my mum on Facebook, who is currently on her own in isolation and missing the grandkids. (Her only outside adventure is climbing a hill twice a week to top up a leaking communal pond, to keep the fish alive).

Twice a week she climbs a hill
to fill her pond with water
she’s gratefu ...[text shortened]... he de-evolves,
behaves a little dumb,
we’ll all be glad to have her back,
because she is our mum.
I had to go back a page to find your poem, and we’ll worth finding it. I’ll bet your mum was delighted. Best wishes to her. Although technology is a wonderful thing, it is so difficult to be alone at this time.

Brilliant!

More wonderful stuff from the immeasurable depths of the "SpiritedDuke's" inkwell.

Dude, if you abstain from the Prose Contest this year, I'm out on strike! 🙂

Thank you kindly. She found the poem funny, even the Gollum comparison.

She got to see one of her granddaughters yesterday (from a safe distance) which meant a lot to her.

Appreciate that sir.

We have at least 12 splendid writers on this site. I'm looking forward to it.

"we have always called", is not an argument, it is an excuse for ignorance
Soorkie you're the one who is ignorant here as you have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to Ravens and Crows among other things!
