The world of never to be.

I’m writing a book, at least I was,
I planned it all out, with pictures because
It was to be illustrated, by myself it was
With big words and small ones, and even some posh ones
I’ll sell it and make loads of dosh, so I will.
I’m not writing a book anymore, it’s finished.
When will we see it in print, why never?
It will never see the light of day, why not?
My dreams of loads of dosh have vanished,
The book was on my computer, and it crashed and is banished
Into the world of never to be.

    How sad’s this! Can you salvage some of it?

    I really hope you start all over again.
    Now with back up. Could be a couple of cds, and their duplicates.

    (Last year i lost 4 month worth of work and i did not like it one bit.
    I hate to do same thing twice.)
    It can’t be even compared to your book of course.
    Now you know computers are not to be trusted or taken for granted,
    unfortunately.

    It was only a story, it never actually happened.

    I really like the story. And the way it is written. Perhaps it is my imagination adding a charming Irish lilt to it?
