Sweet Tweet
Tweet Twit
I've tried
Twice
Communicating
My life
in 140 key strokes.
Followers
I have galore
Doubled
by never tweeting
A single line
of 140 characters.
Twits
I attempt
to translate
from time to time
On a dull day
Machine stroke hieroglyphs.
50 monkeys
at random
with infinite time
are smarter
than infinite tweeters and 50 keys.
No one
can write a poem
as lovely as a tree
or as base as a tweet
for my taste
I will take the tweets of birds.

This made me grin widely in recognition... Have a twitter account and tweet every single post I do, but I've never actually tried tweeting anything more than the link... Unfortunately I can't see the image you've posted to illustrate (sad because I always love your photos)! Have a happy picnic!
ReplyDeleteSorry you cannot see the photo. It is of the cliff swallows of last summer - my favorite tweets.
ReplyDeletei like the 50 monkies and the picture

Another tweet poem...er, I meant sweet! Once again I'm laughing and I realized I've never once tweeted or twitted or whatever in my entire life. I just assume that if I want to reach someone I phone them or post on their facebook. Arghh!! All these technological advances are making me nuttier than usual. Very well done, by the way. Very enjoyable. Be blessed.
