This was excellent! Loved every word. Had to go back when I realized the rhyming lines hehe. Loved the great picture of the doc in specs too. One suggestion..Centre (center- US) the lines for poetic format and would look better. NO SPAGS! WOW!

If it's not loud conversations, both women and men have on their cell--good observation. I see this in our dining room a lot and wonder how the speaker can hear his/her friend.
You do need to put a period after every line because it is a complete sentence.
You're a sport to see the entertainment in this.

    Someone stop me from punctuating poems. Are you sure? I know you are an excellent writer.
reply by Spitfire on 24-Aug-2019
    Positive. Take a look at some of the poems written by the best: Robert Frost, Dylan Thomas, for examples.
reply by the author on 24-Aug-2019
    Yes, you are right about the punctuation, Spitfire. I went back and did it.

    Because you are a skillful writer, I was very much incline to take your word even though I ran across a few who use punctuation some, in one piece. That is what confused me, not your correction. I just needed to make sense why some use punctuation and not get called out on it.

I loved this poem! The picture is perfect, too. The look on the dog's face grounds the poem...his gaze implies patient annoyance with humans.

Super fun and funny!

I agree with your statement, pbomar. We all have to listen to those LOUD phone calls everywhere. I enjoyed your little 'rant.' Your words are descriptive with good rhyme. Thanks for sharing. Jan

We were in New York four times for and extended period of about 6weeks at a time, it's too expensive to own a car there, but the public transport is brilliant, so I've observed the life on those ubiquitous vehicles, here we very rarely travel by public transport, well written Phil, good job, blessings, Roy

Rhyming umbrella and salmonella was genius and made me laugh. The poem overall is really fun and light, so the rhyme scheme suits it well. The only thing I can see to improve is the last line, that reads a little clunkily to me

    I'm not great at poem writing, but I'll take another look at it, Charlie.
