Thoughts on Death
By NedWilson

How silly!

I want to be buried in a paper box
With a pencil by my side
In case throughout eterniporange
I happen to find a rhyme for “Orange”

Ha ha - really funny. Why not invent a new word BEFORE you die? We don't happen to have a "porange" nor a "dorange" - Go on - you know you can use them in your next poem!

Josie, how long have you lived in Yorkshire? Actually, you're in the wrong bit. Think South Yorkshire - Barnsley, Grimethorpe etc.  
 
Cricket = crickit 
 
orange = oringe 
 
oringe/door 'inge 
 
Problem solved.

BTW: Liked the verse.

I thought this reflected the poet's genuine love of poetry. I think some poets have to write poems more than they have to eat.
