Ode to the Avatar

The border collie is ready for
war with spammers it is girding
I hope you like the metaphor,
oh champion of herding!

Letty's chiseled, Letty's stern
Letty's cheekbones could cut glass
But Letty's sweet, and all soon learn
She's the epitome of class

Jes, that's gotta be yours. I can't see your Avatar too well, but I love the implication of your verse

Ah, Sooz, thanks, neat thing. Hey, you're good at this. You're a turban with a touch of class, yourself.

roger's tail is long and pink
yes, folks, he is a rat
with funky posts that make you think
and he lays out the welcome mat

Heeven's an interesting bird
an ostrich, if I'm right
with nary e'er a negative word;
she never posts with spite

There's a tongue stuck in our Craven's ear
I guess that keeps it clean
he's responsible for all of us being here
so what if it's semi-obscene!

Oh, where is maxsdadeo from?
I wonder if it's New Bedford
He once was a babe without a mum
now he looks like Robert Redford

PS Thanks, Letty. I'm on a roll! :-D

YeeHaw...go for it, Jes, Fantastic!

(Max is darlin, no?)

Dr. Evil is perfect for Slappy
His reputation is saucy and yappy
Watch out for the brash
And hide your ole stash
He'll cheer you up when you feel a bit crappy

Mine:

The Emu is a creature of grace
Just look at that beyootiful face
Between Heeven and hell
You can tell that I fell
A2K's where I fall into place

Gawd, I love that emu..
All that and Heeven, too.

The avatar no longer shows
the flower in a pretty pose
'tisn't surprising for heaven knows
the bloom is long since off the rose!

Now, listen here,
Diane, my dear.
Go out and pick another.

One thing that shows
A rose arose
Like you, there is no other.

Peace and Love has a snow white dove
An olive branch in its beak.
For all who seek
a heart thats true
a philosophy of love,
her friendship will share with you
the meaning of the dove.

And Booman has a bird on wing,
Farmer's makes me shudder.
But there a cow with boss, no horns,
No tail, no hoofs, no udder.

And John, the oak's new avatar
Is really quite a zinger.
He's traded in his beagle ears
and feeds his gently springer.

And Fresco's geodesic sphere
refracts the morning light.
And phoenix is no ashy bird,
That eye has second sight.

My avatar is a comic of me,
and not too far off from what you see
Many people have responded, gee
is that really you that I see?

We are the result of all our ancestors,
We had no choice on who they were.
It's probably a joke imposed by some creators,
And the cartoons reflects what we wear.

Oh my god, is that me.
Unfortunately, I'm only a schmee.

Hey, C.I. After seeing your pix in the London mix,
I'd say your avatar, is just who ya are. :wink:

(verra fetching)

Oh Letty dear you do me cheer
With this wondrous thread you me endear
The Avatar I write of now I begs
Is the One with the lovely legs
Here name is Lola she was a show girl
with yellow feathers in her hair
and a dress cut down to there.
She would Mer-en-gue and do the Cha-cha,
and while she tried to be a star,
Tony always tended bar,
across the crowded floor.
They worked from eight to___ four.
They were young and they had each other,
who could ask for more?

Oldandknew, aka John or oak,
Is always at hand with a joke
Or a shoulder when worries of war intrude.
A writer of talent in English or Cockney,
He has stories to last 'til eternity.
In the photo is Freddy,
John's favorite old bloke.
May God bless Freddy's memory
in the heart of my dear friend Oak.

Diane is avatar-less yet her prowess
In praising her friend
Is to all good intend
A wondrous thing this thread appears
To bless all those who would have ears
And eyes to see the words herein
that help us all to lift our chin

diane, would you please tell Lola to get those sexy legs off my thread?

Damn, Hiama. Get a grip...

From Mary Shelly's cup of wine,
Comes the horror , Frankenstein.
It's just McTag in monster dress
He's harmless as I can attest.

That's what I had in mind Letty !!
