Thunderbirds are a no go!

Thunderbirds are a no go!

Sometimes I feel
I'm just a puppet,
everyone trying
to pull all my strings,
every which way.

So I rang
International rescue.
I wanted to speak to
Penelope but she
was tied up
in a string quartet.

Yep! Even my boyhood heroes,
The thunderbirds were a no show.

Andrew Mitchell,
Fun! It is exhausting to be at the pupeteer's mercy but well I like to think that some of my difficulties are really in my head and can be conquored. Take out my trusty scissors and just cut those pesky strings around my soul. Love it . Blessings Kathy

thank you kathy, it was a silly fun write mixing childhood show with the strings attached in adulthood.

Very well done. It seems life offers us lots of disappointments and all we can do is laugh and enjoy life or sit down and cry. A splendid poem. :0

[andrew mitchell]
