Music

Jazz.
I listen.
People play a lot.
Sing, play pianos, horns, trumpets and it can be NOISY
Or quiet and gentle.
Originates from America’s deep south
I love it
Fast or slow,
Hot, hotter and even hotter
Do not like very modern
Flat, noisy and discordant. Blah.
But the ones I like, I love.
Jazzzzzzzzz!

John Wharton

Words

To be to speak, can I?
To get a word to tell a story?
Can I invent?
Some word that become as Shapps did.
Near! No, wrong.
No I cannot remember, blast!
Shakket? Wrong!
Can I speak to say the name!
Shakepit. The rub hurts.
Try another minute …
Shakeshate! No, no, no!
Please, will it go to letters
So Shakes … (it about I the think)
’peare is placed for Shakespeare.

Asking – anything I can speak

Beer – some is lovely

Chocolate – the best in the world, the Galaxy!

Crying – a lot

Food – wish I can cook

Hate – not to read

Jazz – music

Laughing – thank goodness

Live – for everything, but speak, read or write

Love – one in particular

Music – jazz

Running – not short

Shouting – not often, privately

Sitting – tired

Smile – a lot

Standing – painful

Walking – fine

Whiskey – yes

Wine – begin and continue
