There's more life in that water
Than the life it may provide
That life will cause infirmity
And some poor folks will die.

I hope you don't mind me adding a second verse to your deeply distressing poem? It's just sad that in this day and age that wars and greedy warlords can watch whole communities die as they thrive in luxury using guns as incentive.     

Nice one Brian, we've all been there, I've had to put up a fly net to stop Fred's distant relatives getting in. Talley ho!     

Some are great. Some have greatness thrust upon them. You are the greatest of all while this world spins on its axis in ignorance of that greatness.
Pedr, you are my hero and one I look upon for inspiration which you give without knowing you've done so. This is a great work. I hope one day your poems will fill a book to be read by admiring fans like me.     

The poet Lauriet  of Chordie strikes again. After reading this I must admit I felt a little guilty as I can't embrace all forms of music. If rap comes on the radio I switch it off. I actually love some classic music, but the patrons are so stuck up they reject people that have natural talent and did not go to college.  I love it when I hear rock music play their hits with full classical orchestras. Case in point; Roger Hodgeson , of Supertramp. Yes, even Deep Purple!

Oh I don't know if there is an FB account what I meant was people seemed to prefer a FB chat as opposed to a Chordie chat. There may be a chordie account I really don't know, I wouldn't use it anyway I don't like the abuse people think they can use freely on there.
Just my opinion.     

Mojo, do you get these "pop-ups" on any other sites? And if anyone else gets them could you also let me know. The reason I ask is that I don't get any ads which would mean that unfortunately your equipment is infected and you need to get a good adblock prog. Maybe Per or Roger could give you better advice hopefully they'll see this post and get in touch.     
I know how annoying ads can be have you been on YouTube lately?

I believe there was a spam filter, but as you say it seems to have gone to sleep. I try and check all posts (they're mainly spam) each morning and evening, there are usually one or two  I kick into touch each day. When the new updated interface was brought in new members weren't allowed to add stuff at the bottom until they proved themselves team players, and that also seems to have gone. Between you and me when that few days last week where Chordie was unattainable I thought that Per had had enough and closed the site. If that happened it would be a terrible shame. Let's show Per that we still love Chordie and give him all our support. All in favour say YEAH     

Pedr. I honestly don't know who if anyone you were thinking of while writing this but I could see myself, as I do lately, sitting in my studio playing, singing, writing and recording songs, the only audience being passers by and the dog next door. You'd expect him to howl along but he just barks toneless like my singing I expect.
Once again my friend an excellent poem, thought provoking as usual and hitting the nail squarely on the head. Well done     

Performing in the right key is paramount, songs you might sing in the wrong key for your voice will sound bad as I've found to my detriment. Seeing as Paul sings some songs you won't need to change those songs? I would also caution that some songs need to go up  for comfortable performance so I would suggest using a capo. I hope I haven't overstepped ?     

More great words from a great story teller. Excellent work Pedr, I wouldn't expect less and very poignant at this time when the orange blimp that has never served in any armed service can mock the brave and dedicated soldiers of our great alliance. I remember a saying ; you can fool some of the people some of the time...etc. let's hope the rest of the people come to their sense soon. Congrats Pedr     

Pedr, you could wax lyrical about waking in the middle of the night to splash your boots, or toes!
Sometimes the muse hits me.
Sometimes the blues fill me.
Sometimes my heart fills with warmth and joy.
When I read your words, my God they're such joy.
I wish I could write like that.
But then 2 clever dicks my be a stretch too far for one site.
So I bow to your superior wit
Your talent at how you make words fit.
I'm so happy to call you friend
Our hands across the world extend
While you enjoy the warmth and tuis
The cold and rain chill me to the bone.
The snow has come and washed away.
The weatherman says "some more today"
Spring just 2 months away
It's still flipping cold today!
