I did a post about poetry and texting today over at the Imaginary Garden with Real Toads. I would love to hear your input. Texting is becoming more and more part of our daily language. We see it in movies and television. I have seen it already cross over into books, what about you? How do you feel about this type of communication? Do you like it, hate it? I think it is here to stay, what about you? My exercise is to write a poem, using some texting. Check this out:

I chose this song, I saw Melanie on X-Factor sing it.The words ring true for me. It was original done by Beyonce. My family calls me artsy, crazy and turbo. I have so many nicknames, lol.

UTM my dream is a hobby
IYD I can't compete
IYD I can't compete
Wasting my time
VIP is your wirld, not mine
I hid CR8tive, my wirld
2MORO you will read my words, but not today
Crossroads are here
I found my voice
I don’t want to be pulled off path again
Detours hurt my <333
Circle me like crows, dark doorways of regret
CR8ing illuminates my soul
You act ZZZ when I talk
You are AWOL in my world
ADN I wait for you to wake
CY turbo d/c
1DR if you ever will

Thanaks for you visit, I don't agree about loneliness being good for one now and again. I had a good day with my daughter and when I entered my apartment and closed the door,.....emptiness all around.
It's the same every day and has been for 13 years. I do go out everyday am not allowed pets where I live, all I have is the pc, a book or the tv. Perhaps some people like their own company now and again but I don't.
Have a good day.
Yvonne.
What about getting a betta fish and planning outings with friends, when family isn't available. Does your local library have any events, do you volunteer? I know volunteering opened my world wider. YOU are such a fun loving soul and need to be with people!xo
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments on blog. I appreciated them from the bottom of my heart. :)
Melissa-I am so glad things worked out for you and yours~ This doesn't fully express my thoughts, but was fun to experiment with~
