Gypsy has gone AWOL <br />And joined a circus Troup <br />Spends her time now juggling <br />And leaping through a hoop! <br /> <br />Poetry she writes no more <br />Just doesn’t have the time <br />What with family, home and work <br />Who’s got time to rhyme? <br /> <br />On the go all through the week <br />Her brain’s fried every night <br />Counts minutes now, not syllables <br />The poets gone from “site” <br /> <br />And out of site is out of mind <br />So “Hi” to all her friends <br />Don’t forget her comrades <br />And don’t put down your pens!<br /><br />Scarborough Gypsy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/awol/
