About This Poem

KISS MY PETUNIAS

Kiss My Petunias

Call yourself a poet
Or is it poetess?
Your so called poems a child could do
Your work is such a mess.
Hairy fairy rubbish, this what you write
Under the guise of poetry
Your words are such a fright
You offer sickly sweet friendship
 What a joke that is
You are like a white wine spritzer, but without the fizz

But then your loving smile shines right off the page
Your wonderful words of wisdom
Give you credit as a sage
Your compassion is overflowing, your intuition too
I am amazed at all the wonderful selfless things that you do
The time you spend on your family
 Makes you the envy of us all
We know when there’s a problem, you are the one to call
 In fact your compassion is pure poetry
So there is not finer poetess you are the one for me.

    :)Just call me Hanitra. It means scent or perfume. All malagasy names are the parents' lifelong projects, so...:) About this contest, I agree with you; I participated too: it's really tough stuff but interesting to see how far one can sometimes go on being rude...:) You did fine, equilibrating the two parts! I like your wit.

    lol. I'd hate to get on the wrong side of you, for sure. My fave line: "Your compassion is pure poetry." Well done, Mandy. I know Vie will love your poem. Best of luck to you in the contest. :)
