Took a jab
at jamming a bit
down at the pub
with Martin and Steve,
but got stuck in the jam
to jabber instead.
with instruments silent
we babbled ‘bout nothing
yapping and ramblin’
making plans for tomorrow
to meet up
for jamming again.
Vincent van Gogh
De hosts the Quadrille at dVerse and the word is Jabber. I just went wit som silly wordplay of musicians procrastinating.

Jabber Jam or Jam Jam, it’s all good. Fun poem.
reminds me of one or two open mics i have attended all good fun
Sounds like the best kind of impromptu fun. 😊
The best laid plans – may they all lead to joy with friends.
I try to enjoy my traffic jams – more time to listen to music or podcasts.
Fun to read.
Good one!
Great title for a fun poem.
Jab and jamming go hand in hand i think!
nice one
much♡love
And how did the plan go? 😄
Fun and clever! Sometimes that’s how the best laid plans play out. Cheers!
I love it… the best kind of jamming!
Oh the jabbering can definitely distract from the jamming. Love the rhythm and light-hearted vibe of your quadrille.
Jabbering with friends is good for the soul. Sounds like fun. 🙂
“We babbled ‘bout nothing”… that’s how it is sometimes with friends. You gotta go. You have a destination. You show up. Tune your strings. Rosin the bow. And you’re about to get going, but discover you just can’t stop chatting. Sometimes those are the best nights. Really bad for busking, though (30 years ago, of course—I haven’t done something like that in a long time). Thank you for your lovely poem.
Gave me a smile, thanks!
a sociable jabber with a good friend is the best! Jae
So relatable, Bjorn! Enjoyed this!
Sounds like a good time was had by all! Love this.

Feels like the best kind of jam session — all talk, no tunes, but still worth coming back for tomorrow.
