I hold sprinklings of dust and occasional hair
pulled out in frustration, or computer despair.
I carry remnants of biscuits, a sandwich or three:
splashes of fruit juice, coffee or tea.
My glossy key tops are like footprints in sand;
some letters worn off by repetitive hand.
The eventual demise of my N, O, P, Q
means it's out with the old, and in with the new.

Only polite answers please - remember I am his Mummy, no matter how old he gets! As such, I am allowed to be a lazy moo, and use his brain power, rather than mine, to fill today's blank blogpage. I wasn't born yesterday. Anything for an easy life...
This is easy: a computer keyboard!
ReplyDeleteYes, laptop or computer keyboard! certainly not a typewriter? :) teeehee - but that is so cute! love it!
ReplyDeleteWell, the first half is definitely my husband's t-shirt after lunch. *snort*
ReplyDeletedefinitely a keyboard :)
ReplyDeleteThat was fun!!
Well I was guessing all over the place till we got to the key tops and letters. Keyboard!
ReplyDeleteLovely fun poem!

What else could it be but a well used computer keyboard.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the keyboard! lol
ReplyDeleteI also go with the keyboard answer. Now, please don't tell me we're all wrong!
ReplyDeleteHow can Q see my cruddy old keyboard.. and how did he miss the cat hair? ;)
ReplyDeleteI am sitting with it infront of me.My face is getting redder and redder!
ReplyDeleteA keyboard, I'll venture. Actually, I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one who wears the letters off their keyboards. My E, D, C, M & N are gone. Good thing I learned to touch-type. Methinks the particular pattern of wear might perhaps be due to my habit of eating many meals at the computer, and having not quite pristine fingertips as I continue to work. You think?
ReplyDeleteOnly the 'N O P Q'? He's lucky. I can count on one hand the letters that remain! ROFL!!
ReplyDeleteSounds like I got it right ... a keyboard.
ReplyDeleteOkay, just to be different, a Carpathian zither.
ReplyDeleteOnce it's been guessed, people, you can stop guessing....
ReplyDeleteCan't think of anything original to guess after all the above Jinksy!
ReplyDeleteDo you fancy joining us on Wednesday for Inspiration Wednesday (see my blog today for details) - I would love to know which poet inspires your fantastic verse (must say Q seems to have inherited your talent too!)
Rhymeswithplague - don't be a spoilsport - how else would we get Carpathian zither or Angie's husband's T-shirt as answers?
ReplyDeleteHi jinksy...I won't guess because it won't be one now... :)) but may I leave a hello to you from me?
ReplyDeleteSmiles,
Jackie
It's Mr. P's bald head.
