Default a little ditty entitled...

I love to write. I've nothing published, mainly cos i dont submit my work. I need loads more practice before i let the professional critics at me.
Anyway i was inspired by this months writers magazine to have a go at poetry. In particular, a limeric. So I did.

I reckon we all have a ditty in us, and heres mine

One day on the step with a smoke
I met a peculiar bloke
He asked. "Are you a chef"
I answered him "Yes"
"God help you" he cried as he spoke.

"A peculiar choice to have made
To be tied to a stove as a slave"
But I said "It's all good"
"I get tips and free food"
So he buggered off then with a wave.


I'd love to hear what else there is out there. I'm sure there's many a giggle

I wouldn't call myself a cook,
If I try, it's usually from a book.
I try to make good meals, but often fail
You won't see my creations at the store for sale

I wouldn't call myself a cook,
not even one cooking class have I took.
I do like the idea of creating a meal
but they're pretty bad, come on let's be real.

I wouldn't call this ditty a rap,
matter of fact, why are you reading this crap
I'm bored and I'm just trying to have some fun,
ok this crappy poem is now done.

(That was horrible).
