One fine night in the middle of the day Upside down is all I say. Wonderful irony, playing with absurdity, well depicted. I like, I like. Adeline
And another good laugh. Thank you. I'm looking forward to reading more. Irene
I laughed at the title, I smiled within, well done.
Wonderful witty poem Danny with so much humour i love the title very well done
How creative you are, to have not only thought of this, but, line by line, wrote it down. What avenues did you travel, in your mind, to so reverently irreverently put these more-than-humorous lines and separate ideas down? And, everything you said is true! Humor...not the right word! Pungent aroma of honesty in madcap rythmn! ! ! xxElysabeth
I found this just totally stinkin' hilarious... now part of my favorites... I read this out loud, and lost my listeners as I'm cracking up in the middle of it. Cheers, Lee
They said I sould read this after I wrote the one on demons....glad I did. Thanks you are a funny man.
Thank God I found this poem! ! Up so funny, with a down-turned mouth...I loved with all my hatred the dirty, fastidious louse...Danny, you've given me inspiration by this fine, funny poem! ! Refreshing, natural-not forced writing! Good for you.
I enjoyed your joyous nonsense. Poetry should be a medium for fun thankyou ivor
It would be very worthwhile to read Bertrand Russel's essay 'Why I am not a Christian' to be found through Google - food for thought. Very interesting presentation of your theme, highly enjoyable. Kind regards, Margaret.
Aye Danny, think of all those who'll cross over in blind anticipation to find, zilch.
Typical pawky scots humour My friend providing total enjoyment Disregard nit picking genealogist who lack a sense of humour
