Go have words with G-Man if you don't know what a 55 is all about - apparently he is the ringleader! It will then leave you with all the weekend to recover...
A 55 Morning Awakening
If people wake up very grumpy,
like a camel with a humpy,
I like to try and make them smile
by being silly for a while
until their frowning faces brighten
as they feel their burdens lighten.
Then like a golden buttercup
they can cheer some others up!
Join me in a love in, folks?
N.B. :- Thanks to Dan's careful counting, it came to light that I'd copied and pasted my Mark 1 55, which only had 54 words. In Mark 2, I'd added an extra one to get the total 55. I have now come back to edit my mistake, before any other sharp eyed reader takes me to task. I never mind being corrected!
Love this!!! I really like being happy.
ReplyDeleteTIGER TEARS is my 55 this week.
i need you around in the mornings.... hubby will attest to that.
ReplyDeleteSilly is best FOR SURE! I don't trust people who are too serious...
ReplyDeleteA very chirpy little offering! Spring must be round the corner!

Hi Jinksy,
ReplyDeleteIt is always a delight to chase you around in blogosphere. Another good poem. Do they come to your mind suddenly and you write them down or it's a sustained effort?
Have a great weekend.
HA!! "Like a camel humpy." hee, hee har...!
ReplyDeleteI'll take that buttercup and run with it for the weekend--nice one.
ReplyDeleteAw, Jinksy, how could anyone be grumpy after reading your bee boppin poem!! You have a way with words and when you feel like it you make up the word which only shows how resourceful you are!! Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteheeeeelllllooooo buttercup! :) important rememberance to smile
ReplyDeleteSure. Where do I sign up for the love-in?

ReplyDeleteA very sweet little poem Jinksy. Very apt for some of my family too. It would look good framed on the bedroom wall!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Star
Loved it!
ReplyDeletePearl
Loved it. And, by my count, which could be wrong, you did it in 54 words!
ReplyDeleteI like visiting here and getting a lift, a smile, a happiness to pass along.
I can see you had a lot of experience with Verse and Worse but this is great - really loved it ~ I am back with a new hip which at present does not perform quite as well as the old one did but much better than it did for it's last 6 months. In training ~ Eddie
ReplyDeleteYour quest for rhyme is never-ending.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have more poems pending.
So all good wishes now I'm sending
But sometimes I run out of steam.
This poem perfectly reflects my love and I! Except some mornings he just won't cheer and I end up in his grumpy mood! That is very bad!
ReplyDeleteDan-
ReplyDeleteYou are correct, I left out the last word 'folks' - as per 'Join me in a love in, folks? This was due to copy and paste error early this morning. Well spotted.
And Doctor FTSE -
I always have a poem pending
but that can be quite heaartrending
when I cannot find and ending.
Things aren't easy as they seem.
Count me in!
ReplyDelete...To whit - it's hard to proofread as fast as I type.
ReplyDeleteThis made me smile today Jinksy- no mean feat at the moment. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteNow this is a happy 55....love it. Have a great weekend my friend....:-) Hugs
ReplyDeleteAll very well and good, but what if everyone's grumpy, including you? LOL!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if I want to do another meme, but I'll go take a look!
Reading your last few posts I see how your brain is filled with words, but then it takes brain to place them into verses. You have a skill for sure my friend – I love to read all your quick poems.
ReplyDeleteEddie - it's lovely to see you back!
ReplyDeleteJay - I never wake up grumpy...
Susie - Come again - smiles are my forte!
Mam Zen - My door is always open...
Vagabonde - my quickest poems get put in emails!

Thank You for playing and visiting, and have a Kick Ass Week-End...G-Daddy
G-Daddy? I hope not - that would make you a formidable age, as I'm a gnat's whisker from 69!
ReplyDeleteThere was a blog lady called Jynksi
ReplyDeleteWho wrote verse as fast as Nijinski.
They made her write fast
Nail her skill to the mast
And be read on TV by Naplinski.
I'll be here on Fridays LOL Eddie x
Ed and his blue lights are winking!
ReplyDeleteFull marks for very quick thinking.
