Tirzah Conway Poet Limerick

Followers

Follow the leader into the unknown,

   Proving just how little we’ve grown!

      Never to be more than pawns,

         Nothing more than thoughtless spawn!
         
            And they wonder why our minds are blown!

~6th Place in the "Follower or Leader" Contest by Carolyn Devonshire~

Carolyn Devonshire June 30, 2010 at 8:22 AM Great rhyming, Tirzah, and what you sad about "thoughtless spawn" is sadly all too true. There were many awesome entries. Congratulations on your success in the contest. Love, Carolyn

Katherine Stella June 27, 2010 at 6:04 AM outstanding work only suggestion is to format it right with aa bb a so rhyme first two lines then rhyme 3-4 line then rhyme last line with first line rhyme pattern and syllable count to use would be 9 - 9 - 6 - 6 - 9 hope this helps ya cause its a great write keep on plugging away these are not always easy to do

Andrea Dietrich June 26, 2010 at 10:00 PM GOOD one, Tirzah. Good luck in the contest. Luv, Andrea
