That simple haiku
Was the best I could do,
My poetic gene has gone missing.
Try as I might
Seems it's never quite right,
But you know it's the best I am wishing.

The verse may not rhyme,
Is the metre off-time?
No matter, my joy is complete.
And I'll gladly reclaim
My place on this train
In this room where good friends shall meet.

The place where I'll be
Is where I can see,
Over there beyond that green plant,
The coming and going
Of those FRiends knowing
How to do what I know I just can't.

And all should agree
That the place where I'll be
Is mine because it was 'wrote' -
My place on this train
Was assigned during the reign
Of the Belv's vanished hostess, miz cote.

(((((((Amy))))))), I'm not much of a poet, but I can do "potpourri", so I will leave the poetry to the many fine poets here at FreeRepublic and bring other offerings to your thread.

Congrats and kudos to you! I am so pleased that you have re-opened the Belv.
