Nothing happening here

Written to the melody of the song “For what it’s worth” by the Buffalo Springfield

There’s nothing happening here

Seems the poets, have all disappeared

There’s an old poem sitting right there

That someone long ago posted to share

 

And I’m seeing, no poems,

none are found,

doesn’t seem there’s anyone around

 

Verses, I came here to read

‘bout someone’s heart that decided to bleed

Ideas penned, in a poetic prose

of a daffodil in the garden, bed that grows

 

And I’m seeing, no poems,

none are found,

doesn’t seem there’s anyone around

 

So, everything is the same,

and there is no one around I can blame

Some are busy out there just doing their thing

and they didn’t have any poems, they could bring

 

Now I’m seeing, no poems,

none are found,

doesn’t seem there’s anyone around

Hey poets,

where you bound,

how about a poem, make a sound

 

No poems,

to be found,

doesn’t seem there’s anyone around

Stop poets,

turnaround,

tell us where you are, just make a sound

I do like it, very much and I have to confess will, my muse has been idle. However I am pleased to say I have posted three new poems today and will make a new year resolution to try to do better:) I did make an effort to sing these lyrics. You would not appreciate the results, I am no singer :)

I am sure you did a wonderful job singing this my friend. Glad you enjoyed it.

[Gee]

I visit nowhere near as often as I once did either to read or post but notice how few of the old school still frequent the place.
Another nice piece

Oh I have noticed. It certainly is not like it used to be. Thanks again for reading and commenting

I think everyone's frozen, Will! Stay warm my friend. I'm always near!

Thanks again Kelly. I really appreciate your visits.
Did you try singing the song?
