Whats good I've had

[Keith]

A ghazal of rock'n'roll excess and living on the edge! It's a shame that it brought 'Get back' to my mind as the Beatles were just not heavy rock. Very clever, and thanks for the music.

Excess indeed, I never thought about the get back link, but the Beatles probably had a big influence on most of these bands, I mean helter skelter, hey bulldog, dear prudence etc all rock in their own way. Thank JM much appreciated, Keith

Well bugger me, it's a ghazal!  Each couplet is self-contained, with a neat little radif, and you've got your name worked into the last line very cleverly.  Plus, who doesn't love some slammin' guitar riffs?  Nicely done, Keith.

Ha ha yes my one and only ghazal, glad you remembered TOMH I thought that might get missed hence the caps lol. Many thanks.

the world hates a show off, hi keith and well bloody done

Thank you Billy I'm just glad it kind of works and you know me for every one that does there are another three that don't.

Keith, are you published? I'd love to get my hands on a collection if you have one floating around out there.

You are very kind Lizziep. I'm not published but thanks for asking, anyway all my poems are in the pig pen but you have to kiss a few frogs before you find a prince, a few other poets are published and they have some great books out. Best Keith

no he's catholic i think; on a serious note, he has some good poetry splashed around the site.

Some being the operative word

'Kept', and 'train' slant rhyme with 'way', but 'come' doesn't.
Maybe 'sashay' / 'stray'?
Thanks to Leanne for pointing out the 'No time on his hands' ref.

Yes Acebe time on my hands TOMH was my old nick until I became boring old keith and Billy's made us all post pictures of ourselves so I knew I would never get away with anything as glamorous as TOMH thanks for the help on the poem I will have a look at what I can do to sort it. Best Keith
