Fame Riding Pegasus (1702) by Antoine Coysevox. Fame of Louis XIV. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
I’ve been following the trends
I’ve been making my amends
When required I would bow
Could it be I’m trending now?
I have followed all the rules
Made friends here of kings and fools
All that fashion would allow
Could it be I’m trending now?
I’m always a step behind
Followers follow, you will find
Only some the stage allows
Seems I can’t be trending now…

Always enjoy reading your thinking. I thought of starting my own trending list, that would consist of only opposites.
I realized that’s been done, and I do undertand one step behind so I stay out of lines
and tend to my own trends
Thanks – I think one’s own trends are always the best really, this poem was very tongue in cheek!! 🙂 🙂
I enjoyed that! 🙂
This is lovely! You are such an amazing poet, Helen!
Thanks Briana!! 🙂 🙂
I love this poem, both its structure and its message.
Thanks Malcolm!! 🙂 🙂
trending so much better than ‘twerking’ – sorry I make light – but enjoyed your words as usual. 🙂
Thank you!! 🙂 🙂
I can never get with the trends. I am always behind. Loved this!! 🙂
Me too, I’m trendless really! Thanks so much!! 🙂 🙂
