Recorder
by Charles E Minshall
I bought a voice recorder,
A costly miniature size,
To record all the poems
That I might devise.
But the purchase I've found
Has all been for naught.
I've recorded nothing
Since the recorder I bought.
It came with a warranty
So I think I'll take it back.
It was guaranteed to work
But there's a total lack.

| Posted by David R Spellman on 07/04/06 at 01:33 PM Yeah, looks like it broke (at least temporarily) any writer's block you may have had... so it was good for that at least. As always quite the humorous piece too! Thanks for the smile. |
