Using one of the very cool graphics from Kevin
at No Theme Thursday, this has been written for
dVerse Poets Quadrille #214 – “Going Out With A Bang”.
Theme suggested by Punam; this is my 44 word quadrille.
He’s a space cowboy,
not some little girl’s boy toy.
Watch him soar
on a voyage where no man has gone before.
Got a rocket in his pocket.
Banging a gong like King Kong.
The final surprise.
‘Scuse me while I kiss the sky.

Thanks, Kevin. I remember the poem you wrote which incorporated songs. It’s really difficult to do and yours was much longer than mine. Thanks for the inspiration! 😎
