Magpie 109



To say love makes the world go round
Is vague and unspecific.
It's giant cogs beneath the ground -
Now THAT is scientific!

    Clever. You hit the nail on the head with very few words.

    When those giant cogs stick . . that's an earthquake, right?

    As amusing as usual, Frances. I confess to taking your quatrain and running with it.

    But what oils the wheels, that's the question? I've a sneaking suspicion in this day and age, it might be money...

    I have my doubts about the "giant cogs". I think Frances Garrood's original rhymes keep the world ticking, very happily I might add. Thank you for the smiles.

    Good on you Frances, all you need is love!, as a certain englishman once said as he lay in bed in full public view with his beautiful young Japanese girlfriend !

    A perfect Magpie, Frances. Succinct and probably true. LOL

    You made me smile. Seems most everyone else (of those I've read) had a sombre tone. Loved your playfulness!
