Gather or not to gather!

Gather…Gather…Gather

You are so damn addictive

And downright seductive

So very delightful

And yet so spiteful

Once you have looked

You are hooked

For ever booked

And cooked

Hidden in the rubble

There are gems

If only you take the trouble

To look for them

There are also some

 Mutual Admiration Societies

If you are looking for one

There are many varieties

From poetry to Butchery

And cookery to flattery

From political sniggering

To racial bickering

Then there is some art

Of which I have a little part

But people are smart

They post pictures and fixtures as art

For pet lovers

Lots of cats and dogs

For the hungry

Lots of Crabs and frogs

Alas, there is some abuse

And also misuse

For which there is no excuse

Protest is of no use

Whether you like it or not Mr. Gather

They are a blot on you dear Brother

It is time to bother

Whether we should Gather or not Gather

Big or small

It is free for all

If you have the gall

You have the ball

It is a good pastime

If you have the time

If you are looking for vote

You have me to quote

Let us not gather

To blabber

Or clamor

Or glamour
