Our two pieces of advice to new bloggers.

I wrote this poem for Thoroughly Poetic Thursday but it details how we came to be
I imagine when I was six I thought my life could get no better.
I was queen of the house which is all that matter.
Mom had a friend who told her she was a blogger
to which mom replied a W H A Ter?
to which mom replied a W H A Ter?
She gave mom her addy, into the WWW she did roam.
She wondered if here we could find a home.
She looked and she read and she ponder each blog.
She even became a stalker of one or two
She said Madi ...this I think we can do
After a few icky attempts, with all the kinks ironed out
Just a few months after I was seven
late in the evening she pressed publish.
Live we went on the WWW and hoped what we said was not rubbish.
Mom declared for all to hear I am an idiot
I should have tried this eons ago!

We never looked back new friends we found.
Here we are eight years later, two senior ladies full of chatter
and mad as hatters.

ReplyDeleteIt is neat to see where you started. Hope the diva ate all weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how blogging changes your perception....every day, you look at life anew thinking...is that worth a post? Congrats on your award.
ReplyDeleteI guess you could call us stalkers because we always read others posts but our mom won't write anything. She doesn't think we have interesting lives and can't link up to anything to save her life. So we shall continue watching the fun from your pages Madi.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem, and we sure are glad that you started blogging. Well done winning that award. You are looking good Madi. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteYour poems are always great. And we are very glad you found your way to the Cat Blogosphere.
