Hey DarkPower.one should never overtly express one's weaknesses as this can leave one wide open to ,shall we say,leg-pulling.I mean what's the SP on DP going mad on ME for writing DP I wonder.Or how about the 'Right Said Fred' number....'Deeply DP'...And so it goes on.....and on.......and on........
just kidding really..Colin (in damp,dark,Wales, UK)
The idea for 'Yesterday' was kind of presented to me by my youngest daughter's recent experiences of getting lost after trying to visit what appears to be a very popular tree for kids to climb in our locality.

I was late for my tea,
Cos' I went to the tree,
At the top of our hill,
With my little friend,Bill.
See, together we'd planned,
To climb tree hand in hand,
And then jump really fast,
Into green waves of grass.
But I went straight from school,
Breaking mum's golden rule,
See I'd asked could I go,
But my mum had said,no.
Still I'm glad I went up,
With a skip and a jump,
To the tree on the hill,
With my little friend,Bill.
Cos' this time I did reach,
That big branch on the tree,
With the bend at the end,
And so too did my friend.
And we had so much fun,
Just us two,..tree,...and sun,
Until Bill softely sighed,
"Here's your mum"..."Yikes !" I cried.
Cos' she looked rather cross,
When she found Bill and me,
She said "Me and Bill's mum,
We've been worried you see".
But I told her we'd reached,
That big branch on the tree,
With the bend at the end,
Then she just smiled at me.
Then;
As we walked down the hill,
Me,and my mum,and Bill,
We all counted to three,
And then cried......"GOODBYE TREE !
SEE YOU SOON !"......................... .
Yet again, another perfect poem...I think you are getting the hang of this poetry thing. Perhaps you could write a few for me :p ::grumbles::

That is so much fun! It really had the thought process of a child. Not caring, just wanting to reach the top! How cool! I saw no errors in terms of typing or grammar. Great job!

Isn’t it Lovely and the most Splendid when our own children become the inspiration to our writing(s)? And so too is this posting Absolutely Splendid and filled with so much Lively Vigor.

Many thanks 'Rena' for your comments. And yes, it is truly wonderful to draw artistic inspiration from one's own off-spring...
Fun read Colin. I like how the form changes in the 13th stanza- nice change of pace. Very playful and innocent- much like the young tree-climber herself I'm sure. Nice work!
