1.
She lives in the down under land,
And used to conduct a brass band,
She gives us a peep,
At Herc, her pet sheep,
Her travel tales are simply grand.
2.
This one's no wish for a bride
He carries his gayness with pride,
He writes about food
And films he's enjoyed,
Convention he's always defied.
3.
She always crusades for what's right,
For justice, the world she will fight,
Loves donkeys and kitties,
And also writes ditties,
She's caring and funny and bright.
4.
This Irishman has a quick wit,
Amuses with what he has writ,
He chooses with care,
The words he will share,
And may make you laugh just a bit.
5.
She's German, and you will find
A keen and enquiring mind,
She used to teach school
Won't suffer a fool,
Can be blunt, but is really quite kind.

@Drosophila Funny you should say that - I'd been conversing with him for about a year under the illusion he was a woman, and then he said something about needing a shave! Then he showed me a picture of himself, just to make sure.

@pgntwo Oh well, we do know that you're infamous. Do you see that @Dropsophila made the same mistake as I did, and thought you were a woman?

@jaboUK I admire your creativity whenever you do your postings. How much time did it takes you to finish writing all the ideas?

@annierose I have to be in the mood to do these, but when I come across something interesting about someone I make a note of it, and just wait till I feel like doing them. Then I may do several at once. Sometimes they just 'flow off the pen', other times I can't get it right. When that happens I leave it alone, and when I go back to it I may be able to finish it.
So there's no set time for each of them - some take 15 minutes, others take days. And some I abandon altogether, as they never come right.

@annierose I do pick up things about people as I go about the site, but obviously can't cram too much into 5 lines.

@hereandthere Oh yes, Judy did do that, but it may have been some time ago.
Pgn is very clever with his words and puns, and also, as you say, the foreign phrases.

@crazyhorseladycx I thought the spider added a bit of contrast - I hope your begonias do well. I've just finished planting up mine for this year.
Thanks for replying with your cute rhymes. That certainly was blunt of MALUSE to tell you that.

@jaboUK indeed . i hope they do's well. i'll get'cha some pic's 'f the vast variety available'n these parts...'tis jest shameful! there's a threat'f a thunderboomer complete with large hail so i'm holdin' off'n get these potted'p. much easier to move'em to shelter if'n they're still'n those wee pots from the store.
yer welcome, apologies't the dullness, lol. i aint too sharp these days't that time'f morn .
blunt? i reckon that's one way to put such. got the same from her't the "other place". here i went'n figured 'fter all that time (good heavens! 2 years?? where'd the time go?) she'd learnt more'n'd not be so upset with my dribblin'. alas, such didn't occur. i don't hold't 'gainst her, nor anybody fer that matter. i continue to read her discussions, jest refrain ('n ya know jest how hard such's fer me, lol) from leavin' a response.
there's 'bout 10 folks i do such with. 'tis alrighty though coz i'm used to bein' 'n outcast
