(the New Game) the Haunted Poets
last night i tried to sleep
but each time i went i failed
i heard the wailings of dead poets
who begged me tell their tales
their tales were very scary
i tried not to listen
but their pleas were very strong
i said, i'd listen on one condition
who could tell their story short
but make it very strong
who could rhyme with skillfulness
and not be very long
so i asked the poets
Please; just one at a time
and when you've finished your story
tell us who's next in line.
starting with you ms. carolyn devonshire
(tell us your tale and pass it along to some one who will answer within 24 hours. if they
don't answer; it's your responsibility to choose someone else. ) happy birthday carolyn.
