Spreading the love: The Pumper Poem. (replies in prose only!)

[Motorhead]

Today was New years celebrated with a cold beer ...
Sitting by a warm fire had notion to get inspired ! ... breaking out my buddies sexy little Steyr
Shot for awhile being bored with results, just a single hole the size of a mouse
Not a mouse in the house to feed the desire ... of shooting his lights out extinguishing his pyre.
So here i sit all broken hearted wishing to shoot but only farted ....

My old pumper is an 8 stroke thumper
He's light and handy
And will never be
As bulky and awkward as a PCP

BTW this thread is for old pumpers not Springer's and pre charged lunkers 😉

Since joining this forum I've learned so much
Pumpers, Springers, even poetry and such
From the Millenium to the Mighty P-17
And virtually everything in between
I typed for an hour spilling my wit
But when I hit send nothing did I get
So I went to the workshop to find that special tool
Only to hear Betty Lou say "It's raining and we have satellite you fool"
Yes, if you hang around here there's much to be learned
Even 2% of things posted by RSterne
There are fun shoots with prizes like GTA hats
But what I'll never understand is ... WHAT THE HECK IS A wutendSpatz !!?

My QB79 carbine, seemingly soft and mellow,
Rains lead pills down upon a feathery fellow,
WutendSpatz is German for "furious sparrow".

My question was then and still my quandry,
have you, Chris, been keeping up with your laundry?

[avator]

Being addicted to airguns he don't have the time
To wash for a quarter or dry for a dime
For New years he had dark beer and kraut
And resoluted just to turn his shorts inside out

I can hardly stop laughing
This thread's turning south
That last littl rhyme
Made me through up in my mouth.

"Too much information!" I painfully sigh,
I don't know whether I should laugh or cry!

It's not too bad so far, my point surely not moot,
lest we remind Spiralgroove to just stick it in and shoot.

My question was then and still my quandry,
have you, Chris, been keeping up with your laundry?

I'll never live that down,
til you run me outta town,

I live on my own now,
doing laundry, I now know how,

So I sit and ponder,
My laundry, in a pile no longer.

Oh contrar my friend... regarding what we have taught,
It should've stuck by now I thought.

Three piles it is... Not none, one, or two:
one in the washer, one in the dryer, and one on you.

Dr. Seuss would be proud
Such fine alitteration
Men stretching their minds
With great aspirations

To forefront a sport
We hold close to our hearts
Be it pistons or compression
Or CO2 carts

We all are the same
We use the same air
To propell our projectiles
From here to then there

From pumpers to jumpers
To big heavy clunkers
From BBs to pellets
To great big bore thumpers

From scopes and bypods
And strong one piece rings
To peep sights and chronys
And all airgun things

We all have connection
Be it vintage or new
It's not what we have
But that what we do
 
And to that I say
I call you my brothers
In a sport and addiction
Disregarded by others

We share a safe place
Our own getaway
Your brothers and sisters
On the great G. T.  A.

The rhythm! The wording!
'Tis all such fine use!
From here on I'll call
our T-Higgs, "Dr. Seuss".

I was going to reply
With phrases most rhyming
But my mind did deny
The words and timing
To tell of a springer I love and adore
A gun I named with thought most beguiling
A smooth shooting tale of Elanor
I pondered overlong  as my time was whiling
As my mind went into cessation
I thought up a new creation
To tell a tale of a story untold
A rhyme to please both young and old
So here is my response in earnest
Yet my heart still yearnest
To tell of sweet Elanor...
Alas...Nevermore..
