Okay, so this is an effort at writing a limerick (in case you cant recognize it as one after reading it). It has been inspired by Microsoft’s “bing.com” (how it is any better than Google is beyond me).
Bing is going over my head
And Google has been my butter ‘n bread
The only way to make me unhitch
And get me to make this taxing switch
Is if they’d call it “Bong” instead.
All I’d like to say in my defense is that I have very little time… given a little more, I would be a poet genius (no no not gene-ass).
You r brilliant… MS lost an opportunity to attract at least 20-30 million bongs in one shot..
There once was a Bong in Veda
Who thought no poet was greater
She Googled all day
She Binged the night away
Can’t we please just trade her?
@ Romila
Do you really think you can tell
A bad poem from one that’s swell
Don’t dream of the trade
And expect to get paid
Even if you try desperately to sell
So you think you can tell
A poem that’s swell
Good rhymes from bad jokes
A pat on the back from funny pokes
So you think you can tell
And did you exchange your google for bing
Good rhyme for a fling
A cherished dream for things
Ok you get the message and I’m no David Gilmour
@ Romila
David Gilmour would be turning in his grave (expect that he’s not dead). I used to love that song before you murdered it.
Nice to see some really wonderful poetic comments fight over a poetic post 😀
@ Kuntal – Thanks… just an effort to add some masala into our everyday lives!
I think Priya and Romila are both brilliant poets/ writers! I am biased and I think it runs in the Family! So impressed!
