MY GATE

I have a gate it has two bolts
It also has a latch
And on the back
To keep it open
It has a fancy catch
So why am I telling you this
Don’t suppose you want to know
In fact I’m quite sure that you don’t
So sorry, now I’ll go

Hurrah! You've managed to write a poem without the F word, Roger, which I think is a step in the right direction unless, of course, you feel particularly strongly about something. Your gate is not your home, I know, and this week's challenge, set by Bill, is to write about what 'home' means to you ideally. Do you not feel tempted to submit a poem more or less about that for other members of the Flash Poetry group to peruse apart from me? If you continue to be marginal like this, the chances are that other people won't pick up on what you're writing. What do you think?

smiley Sorry about the language - but I can't help it, though I'll try my best to behave in the future. Sorry, M, but for reasons previously mentioned, I'm not ready to do that right now. And I feel that marginal is the proper place for me at the momment. 
Thanks for commenting - much appreciated. even if you did shout at me smiley
