A kipper with a wooden eye
Is always seen as being sly
No one knows the reason why
Its just the way it is
A Pig without a curly tail
never should be put on sale
As everyone ends up in jail
It’s just the way it is
If you should see a porcupine
who has no points upon its spine
Chances are that it's a swine
It’s just the way it is
Worms who stuff their nose in books
are known because they lack the looks
Invariably turn into crooks
It’s just the way it is
When so called poets usually write
what to the intellect is shite
They only do it to incite
It’s just the way it is
So here we are at last my friend
It’s my guess that you’ll pretend
You did not read it to the end
It’s just the way it is

I have to admit this got a good chuckle out of me and the pic was hilarious. I'm sure glad I never really considered myself a poet. Just someone who dables a little.Great words usage and loved the fast pace of the flow. The rhyme was excellent as well. Great job on this piece.


-
all I have to say about this one is it was interesting lol. Not sure what to make of it though. honest perhapes
thanks for another good write
huggles

Please do not try to make anything of it It's just The Pen acting silly. Sometimes i just write without thinking about what it is to be about, I just like playing with words and ideas looking for a melody, the words are unimportant
-
-
Ah, but I did
and found expounded toungue in cheek
where Pen profoundly, soundly speaks.
I'm caught in his candor, he makes it his biz
to call what he sees, just the way that it is.
You can't con a con, and soothsayers, forsooth,
Nor Pen when he's on a roll for the truth,
AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS!


-
Indeed
It's just the way it is - another little chuckle - if ever I want to have a little giggle to myself I visit your page - you just have that way of writing thats fabulous and so appeals to me - and that pig has the finest gnashers please find out who their dentist is|!!!
A very fine write indeed - as always!!!!

It’s just the way it is.........And it's bloody fab...loved it..You are a tallent indeed...forget the intellect lol....Dan


-
The pen writes and I read it to the end. It's just the way it is and should be no other way. I don't know what a kipper with a wooden eye would look like but I think the pig is a little on the scary side with those teeth lol. I wonder if he is one of the three little piggies who would exact revenge on the big bad wolf.


-
Yes you certainly have your way
with all those words that sway
for your funny rhymes in a mind stay
it is just the way it is.
You should put those lines on your author page
Safety hazard!
Beware highly contagious poet!
carrying highly addictive poetry!
and for sure I will be back for more...
Fantastic write.

Take care when entering my zone
your mind will never be your own
for i have ways to drop the tone
It's just the way it is

I absolutely love this smiling pig picture. where on earth did you find this thing? As for your writing... well you know what I think of it... I tell you each and every time I read something of yours... I love it. And that dear one... Is the way it is...
Love ya!
-
My, oh my..I am new
didn't even have a clue
that EVERYONE is reading you
It's just the way it is

-
-
You have found out and fairly quick
that reading me can make you sick
another one falls for the trick
It's just the way it is

Mr. Pen
I’ve read the poem Pen did write
A wee bit strange but think alright
The last few lines a bit contrite
It’s just the way it was
Jim


-
-
Jim my friend you must refrain
from causing yourself so much pain
The Pen will only fry your brain
It's just the way it is
-
-
Love the rhyme here and the humor. You are so right in your point of view. Love the flow.


-
Oh I love that Pen
I read it all, it must be said
you hit the nail right on the head.
I'd rather be alive than dead
that's just the way it is.


-
-
Patti darling please don't die
the reason is.I'll tell you why
The Pen has needs of an ally
it's just the way it is

Legend
I liked the whole idea, especially the beginning, and end. I thought some bits in the middle got very slightly wonky -- but that's the way it is.
-
hahah..well I read it all the way throug! Enjoyed this
poem especially about the bookworm
Good job
poet/pen!

-
Bravo, bravo, bravo!
Another gem so reminiscent of good old Spike Milligan ~ I know he would approve of your talent, in bucketsful!
Well done indeed. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one.
BRAVO!!!

-
I did too read it to the end
Humpfff
I got a fit of the giggles and that's just the way it is


-
-
I knew you would anyone who's head is spinning round like yours was a certainty
-
-
Don't ya know!
When Legend writes the poems we read
There seems to be a special need
To entertain and not mislead
That’s just the way it is!
He blames his pen, the talent scout
For thoughts that seem to trickle out
And if he didn’t we’d be without
That’s just the way it is!
Love the pic & verse! joy

-
-
When Legend writes he sets the scene
that all his works will turn out clean
then he end up with obscene
It's just the way it is
-
-
This reads...
almost like a "Fractured Fairy Tale" But you've given my funny bones something to rattle about!


-
-
take care of that funny bone you'll need it when they lock you up for reading such rubbish
-
-
Mate, You never cease to amaze me with your writes and this one is no different. First, I love the picture you used and secondly, the whole piece just had one terrific feel to it. I love all the comments by the people below who really joined in with the awesome flow. You are super! I don't know what else to say but just keep these little rippers coming and keep us rolling in the aisle.


-
-
I love to write tripe now and then
and when i do i blame The Pen
beware for i'll be back again
It's just the way it is
-
-
I like this very much--especially the last couple of verses.


-
-
Thank you, and another nut joins my parade
-

We so called poets usually write
far into the dead of night
So causing us to lose our sight
It's just the way it is
Our poems we tend to forfend
we hope you'll never villipend
We'll write until the bitter end
It's just the way it is
And so I climb the stairs to bed
my dogs have been watered and fed
so now I'll rest my weary head
It's just the way it is
I'm still larfing as I turn my pooter orf
Luv Lu


-
-
Take care when climbing into bed
that I'm not there inside your head
I'm contagious, quickly spread
It's just the way it is
-
-
yup now there is that sense of humor of yours that I love so much! I love it. Great job writing this. And that my dear friend is just the way it is...

The pen snokered me again.
Don't they hang pen in some place in this world- surely not their owner. For it is not their falt the pen get's loose and make the public look slip a read - they end up with a snicker to keep the grin from wanting to win...mac got me again taking a peek! Was that not the plan- Well that is the way it was in the end.

-
-
I alway catch them reading Even when they don't want to Its part of my trick to make them think they are missing something by not reaching the end of a piece
-
-
You know Dear Pen you always say
that i should never write your way
it's never black or white, it's grey
it's just the way it is.
You know that I read to the end
and I would never dare pretend
to tell a lie to you, my friend
it's just the way it is.
So here I am and as I write
upon this page in black and white
for now to you I'll say "Good Night"
it's just the way it is.
Thanks for the smile
Sue

Dearest Sue I'm pleased to see
that you've caught the bug from me
of writing rubbish poetry
It's just the way it is
I alway knew it all along
some are weak,and others strong
with you i didn't get it wrong
It's just the way it is
Now your doomed to spend your time
in writing some demented rhyme
some may think that its a crime
It's just the way it is
-
-
Lol... very clever indeed. Love that little pic! He is a cutie pa tutie!


-
-
So pleased you like the picture it was one of my best,the others did not show me grinning
-
-

Very creative and a great sense of humor you have dear. I can't wait to read more of your work.
thanks for sharing this with us.


-
-
Be careful if you read more of my work, the chances are you will lose all that is dear to you.because of the behavior it encourages
-
-
You always seem to make me smile
Your verses have a certain style
That’s why I come and stay awhile
It’s just the way it is
Love,
Amera♥

A smile you say,oh please beware
the white coat men are over there
they have a jacket you can wear
It's just the way it is
-
-
LOL! How could anyone EVER not read your words to the end? Again, when needing something light, you came through! Thanks for sharing!!


-
-
Why thank you.sometime i don't bother reading to the end myself, it only encourages The Pen
-
-
I read the verse the whole way through
And guess, sir pen, it was by you
I know the sort of things you do
That's just the way it is



-
-
Jeff my friend its just my rule
to try and make you look a fool
I'm sorry if that seems cruel
Its just the way it is
