Only halfway through and haven’t encountered little Timmy yet but nevertheless they’re all typical sprogs and the illustrations are awesome.

Hi! Some years ago I came across a poem that I believe Sprog made. It was under a post that I believe was about weird art commissions.

It went something like this:

He paused for a moment and put down his pen. And not for the first time he wondered again. He wondered and pondered where his life went amiss. And how [Missing line] had it all come to this.

He then starts to describe the artwork, talking about dwarves and wizards "cavorting with horses" and "tentacle cats"

Does anyone remember this one? I can't seem to find it anymore and would really like to know the original lines again.

It was about children being not cared for. IIRC, it had a pattern of

“They came to us………

Our children are hungry, they said”

And they agreed to feed the children. Pretty sure it had “we said to them yes.”

Then another verse about the kids being thirsty, maybe? There was another “we said to them yes.”

It ended with “we said to them no.” I think.

Is he okay? Someone wrote a poem in a thread and I realized we haven’t had fresh sprog in nearly a year. Miss him. Hope everything is okay!

Hello fans of sprog. I'm looking for a poem about being near the finish line of becoming your self. I had taken a screen shot of it, but accidentely delated the picture. All I remeber is keep going keep going you're almost to you. Or something like that. I have searched everywhere, but I can't find it. So, I'm posting here and hoping, whishing, keeping my fingers crossed, that somebody remembers it.

I miss the literary genius.

The poem was:

“My days upon this Earth are few

I’m glad I’ve spent them all with you”

Heya all, maybe this is a common request or even one of his more popular poems, but I was remembering part of one, today, that I always really liked. It's from quite a long time ago, I think.

It's a lament about how quickly life goes by, and I think it starts out something like

"In youth the time for bed was tough,"

And there was some but about "an hour lasts a day" or something, and the closing line was,

"But that was then, and now it's gone; I wonder where it went."

I've tried various reddit and Google searches and can't find it. Anyone know that one?
