The never ending Ode to TRF

I love this Place,
And everyone in it - well almost.
Yes even you with a mad face,
Just not those banned for a bad post.

Nothing more for me to say,
If you missed this Poem
Tomorrow is another day,
Now please add one of your own.

You guys both did super!!

If I tried, it would just be a blooper.
But maybe, you’d think I was a trooper.

Each day and night I think about watches.
It all started with a company named swatches.

Whose watches these are
I think I know
His house is in the village though
He will not mind my stopping here
To watch his indices aglow


With sincere apologies to Robert Frost

The never ending Ode to TRF

Excellent All,
Will I continue?
Methinks I shall

Another day, another Dollar
I love those Rolexes - but
The prices make me holler.

I see one now, and then 2 more,
But keeping them clean is quite a chore.

Then there’s Winders to consider
Yet Padi reminds us wrists are better.

Oh...what a bother
Eh, wot wot, rather?

I know I’ll be a lucky feller,
When I go to buy that steel Sky-Dweller

While many here will laugh and scoff,
I think I can get it 20% off.......

I consider your question Valid, so I’ll try to compose a Ballad

There is a Swedish guy, who thinks he is quite sly

He always makes fun of me, however funny he tries to be

We all know the true reason for his teasen

Jocke, is just trying to make up for his small- ...

Which One

I think that today, I'll buy a DateJust
A saw one I love, from I seller I trust

Or maybe it's better, to get a Submariner
The one that's for sale, shows little wear on her

Oh wait, is that a beautiful Sky-Dweller
I must have a look, to see if it's stellar

But then, there is always the platinum Day-Date
Oh my, for this one I'm sure I can't wait

Of course, I've been yearning for a Pepsi GMT-Master
If this is the one, then I must get it faster

If fast is the way, then I should go Daytona
I'd know elapsed time, making nice cups of Kona

A strange force is pulling me, toward a Milgauss
I'll be sure a machine, won't create a time loss

While I float away looking, at the rubber strapped Yachty
I'd be smiling and enjoying, a peppermint hot toddy

There's just something about, that polar Explorer
I saw one for sale, by a well known restorer

Someone's also offering, an amazing Air-King
The best of the best, when you're not wanting bling

It's time to decide, as I sit here and drool
Oh who's kidding who, they're all just so cool

And witty, worldly commentators;
We ultimately salute Steve's finesse and decorum

I'll drink to that with a Rolex or Seiko
But I can't stand smart watches
They just drive me wacko.

The never ending Ode to TRF

Can you here it?
The ticks of your Rolex.

Making too much noise,
Could it mean Folex?

Time is drifting away,
Too late if you used eBay

You can't catch that lout
Should’ve checked WatchOut!!!

I think I'm addicted
to Rolex I'm afflicted

This place made me broke
but I didn't blow it on coke.


Ok, I am done
but please go on this is fun!

Explorer II
That Polar white round face,
Plots filled to the brim with Lume.

As I regard it to keep pace,
Before dawn breaks or by the Moon.

Quietly, smoothly seconds sweeping,
Bearing witness to us all.

I see it even while sleeping,
As if awaiting morning’s call.
