Peanut Butter and Jellyfish

Jellyfish, Jellyfish
What are you good for?  
Not good for the belly, you litter the beach, ...your tentacles reach
right through sand and surf, to sting our bare feet!

Inedible you are
I'd rather by far
bring me a jar
of jam that is red
some good peanut spread
to smear on my bread
instead!

Carrie, wow! I can't believe I forgot to thank you for the nice and silly poem you entered in my contest. A late late late CONGRATULATIONS. Thank you for the smirks and smiles your poem gave me while reading it. Hope you can forgive me, it is not like me to stoop low and diss all who support me or my contest. Even if I get no response, everyone still matters, and I try my best... Love love LINDA...

I like the outre image of this. You are a true, good poet, one of the better ones on this site, in my opinion and I single you out for praise because there are a few. I hope to complete a massive series of couplets about the various poets on here before , say, Labor Day. You'll be there, I'm sure. Say, Carrie, howdoes one go about sponsoring a contest? Talk to me via Soup Mail. I'm thinking about one for Halloween with all the classic monsters and some REAL prizes! Regards, Gerard.
