Welcome to the 2nd edition of 8 Lines a Week – The blog for the busy.
Forgive me this week if I jump right on in, for I discovered a tonic from a helpful old jinn, a sprightly ole fella of Loraxian kin.
Last weeks 8 Lines didn’t half stink so I wrote it in an invisible ink
This week I was inspired by an old chum, Dr. Seuss, and with the help of the sap squeezed from a blue spruce, I began to produce
Last week I was empty, I’d injured my mandible, so now I bring you something more tangible
Childhood memories from Knowle and from Dorridge, stirred in my head like a Vat of Prune Porridge
So a few old books got me out of my jam, as quick as a pig can get turned into green ham in a can delivered by a man in a pram
So without further ado, and I do and I don’t, I’ll complete this last line whilst I pull on my coat
Bye from above and bye from below, this 8th line must mean that it’s now time to go…

That is really good, it has to be said, as I write this before I go to bed. I’m sure others will concur, while I write this in Edinburgh.
🙂 Reading this comment, I thank you for that, a response such as this is a welcome comeback
