Its all a load o balderdash! Dyou wish
To keep those pesky commas in mid-air?
How can they influence the price of fish?
If bookshops want to drop them, do I care?
Them Waterstones will still sell books, I smise
Like Boots will do the drugs and Tiffnys jewls?
And Ronald will make burgers, Sainsbrys pies?
Do squiggles in some logos make them fools?
So lets go back to dear old GBS.
He knew a thing or two bout grammar stuff.
Lets rite it ow we say it – dont digress.
Of snobby arty farty crap – enuff!
Shall I compare thee to a summers day?
I shall! And sweep that comma clean away!
What talented members we have here; surely the cream of DT readers! All entries here are superb in their own individual way and the subject matter is inspired. PS Yes, “lets rite is ow we say it.”. I’m a fan of GBS!
Glad you agree, Papa! I’m starting an anti-pedant movement! 🙂
Fighting talk, Janus. 🙂
