Jaye Marie and Anita Dawes

The recent bout of lurgy
Made a bee-line for my eyes,
So, although I’m feeling better,
It was really no surprise
That every post I scheduled,
Both the reblogged ones and mine,
I found I’d set for publishing
In twenty-sixty-nine.

The keyboard’s playing up again,
My fingers are no better,
Between them I’m mistyping stuff
And every other letter
Is disappearing, though I’ve pressed
With forefinger and thumb
(Though keys may just be sticking
On an errant Christmas crumb…)

And so, now posts are scheduled,
What with hands and eyes that ache,
I’m turning the computer off
And giving them a break.

Okay, I’ll be checking in, but my time online will be minimal for a few days, while my eyes get chance to sort themselves out.
