Notes About The Poem

There might be a full guarentee that Green Eggs and Ham, just popped into my head.

Green Eggs and Poetry

I will write poems here and there;
I will write poems everywhere.
I will write poems on a boat;
it will be much harder on a goat.
If I sit upon some hay,
I could write about the break of day.
When I ride upon my big yellow bus,
I talk to the kids so they don't fuss.
Writing poetry is my thing to do,
it helps to make sure I am not blue.
I will write poetry in my brain;
I will write poetry on an airplane.
And now the day is old and through,
this silly poem popped in my head brand new.

As long as the words pop up, you'll pop them out, cos the world is better off with a little verse here and there.

Cute and whimsical. I remember a time one judge had us write like Dr. Seuss. It was fun.

This superb rhyme oozes charm and wry humour. Excellent imagery in an economy of language. Apt word choice and smooth flow. Heartfelt thanks for selecting my entry in Rest Of The Story contest. Much appreciated Howard

The comedy was a little bit intended. Thanks for the compliment.
