Either Inevitable Or Incredible

Either Inevitable Or Incredible

Things happen in life that are inevitable
Uncomfortable feelings or are incredible
Beyond imagination but still will occur
Of your yourself not seeming so sure.

Why was Quigley really down under?
Causing thunder and collecting plunder
Was really a person who played a part
Of understand feelings and having a heart.

Sanibel Island we loves and was so swell
And I still can count almost every shell
Left there but should not be collecting
Pelicans flew above and were protecting.

Wife and I received an unexpected call
My best man is dying and started to bawl
But did not do and decided to keep inside
By this weekend in heaven he will abide.

(This brought tears to my eyes again.)

What I write sometimes people take wrong
Wanted my poem to become a great song
Or just for you so you can simply read
To bring much comfort while fulfilling a need.

My poem put it on your forehead with a kiss
You could sense my osmosis and catharsis
People to be unbiased them you did insist
In their changing lives became a catalyst.

God, I never did need to be a chosen few
Must confess all my sins and pray to you
Guy had lovely daughter who liked to giggle
Changed her name from Quigley to Quigle.

(Of course, you know what spell check wants me to do.)

Instead of a toast my poem I will propose
When you sing along here's how it goes
If you play golf near gulf and have a great view
No wonder I can't take my eyes off of you.

You have to play this while reading my poem with.
This is all of the eye medical people's theme song.

Onomatopoeia may look like gibberish, but this type of poem is fun and easy to write- and even more fun to read aloud. Trust us. Here are some tips to get you started writing an onomatopoeia poem: 1.Crazy word, not such a crazy meaning. It’s pronounced “on-uh-mat-uh-pee-uh.” This word thankfully means exactly what it sounds like (bonus point: that’s its definition). Onomatopoeia is the use or format of words whose sounds imitate their meanings (ex: buzz, honk, boom). Let Gooogle figure it out for me. Jim Horn

I have my eye on your sense of humor. How about an ophthalmic odamatapea. Lord. How do you spell it. Jim Horn
