Poetry Monday :: Event

Poetry Monday is a challenge, normally hosted by Diane at On the Border. But from Monday, January 8, 2024, Messymimi and I have conspired to keep the chair warm for her, as she's taking a break due to health issues. We will each set the topics for one month, I began with January, Mimi supplied for February, and so on until Diane returns.

Today's word is Event ~  I feel like I have been complaining over my health every Monday for these last many years, and today's no different. I woke Saturday morning with a toothache. Today I visited the dentist, had some X-rays and were sent home with a minimal but good repair and some antibiotics. Now I hope that this is it for some time to come. The sun is shining, the trees are green, it's time to dig, and sow, and weed, and rearrange, and, and, and ...
Event ... well I took my usual way out. I found all the  rhymes and made a nonsense poem.

After the deep space event
most everyone was spent.
The letters all sent
and the ramrods all bent.

We burned every cent
To master the scent
But never a dent
in the elusive vent.

And then in the end
We found that they meant
To bury an Ent
And then off we went

We abducted the Ent
In a lifeboat we went
And the barrier we rend
It had a happy end!
