Friends till the end, forever, they cried
On the battlefield, beaten, tis when they died
Now locked together, by their own man-made chains
Only problem about them, was neither had a brain
You’d think by now, they would know how to break
The bindings around them, how much could it take?
But emotions ran high, and soon they did fight
Yelling at each other, all day and all night
When one would go left, the other went right
Things got so nasty, the neighbors took flight
Then the Devil himself, called them to him
Demanded they behave, and then, on a whim
He decided the two, must forever stay
The way they came to him, on that fateful day
And he went a step further, making sure he was clear
No more arguing nor fighting, or they’d disappear
But that wasn’t the only thing that made them cranky
He named one of them Clinky, and the other one, Clanky

Yeah, I’m on week two of the new term now. It’s off to a good start but getting tougher by the minute. Trying to keep up with everyone on here is proving to be quite the challenge for me. I have one week off every 8 weeks. So I try to cram everything in, then. Lol… 😉

Lol, nope. These were all me. I wasn’t as happy with them as I normally am. Been so tired and they just sort of feel dull and flat to me. Hopefully everyone can turn them into grand masterpieces anyway. I’m always surprised and amazed but what everyone ends up doing with them.
