I thought I would start a thread for people to put their poems on. I've done one to start off, I hope you all like it, have a go.
Scope forum
Welcome to the scope forum
A place to get rid of the boredom
To make virtual friends and mates
Plenty to talk about and also debates
We all check in and chat every day
Making sure we are well and all is ok
We don't know who anyone might be
But I know what they are all having for tea.
Here no one is judging you for your looks
Like they do to the cover of a book
Nor on your wheelchairs or sticks
There is no one here to take the Mick
There is lots of support and advice
On benefits, emotions and how to cook rice.
There are games of plenty to play too
Like beat the admins, we have won a few
Come share your art, photos many do
Crafts like carvings, sculptures to view
Lots of bright cute cats on there too
come have a look I've only named a few

Hi @Sandy_123, thank you for the poem, well said! I'm not well enough to write a poem right now,
I need to get some sleep but I refuse to count sheep, I'll start counting my blessings instead, thinking of what you said.
Good night. -
