Social Networking and Silly Poetry

It was in June of last year that I attended the American Library Association conference in Washington D.C. when I first heard about all the 2.0 connectedness that has so absorbed me since that time. Anyway, here I am in April of the following year sharing two silly poems that I wrote as part of a weather word of the week contest on New England Cable News. Matt Noyes, the weatherman, has read both entries on the air:

Here's the poem for the weather word "befog" to be read as a rap poem or sung as a rap song.

Be fair or foul, I don’t want guessin’
Reckon I should tune in NECN
Where Matt he tells us what’s to be
I know the Noyes man won’t befog me

Here's the poem for the weather word of the week: "presentiment"

Mackerel sky and wispy clouds
Moving low and swift
These are my presentiments
Of barometric shift.
