Celebrity
On that day my soul grew star struck
the astonished all-star abashing, such luck
And so I screamed, 'Is that a tree?'
I felt compelled to sniff the personalities
Eagerly, I looked for the fashionista
Engaging Ah, distinctly I was blushing
I discovered the figureheads stars all around me
Fabulousness - fabulousness - fabulousness!
The drapery diva’s dazing
It was gazing
Somewhat louder than the phrasing
Screaming, chanting, praising
Through which came musing, musing, musing
That the syncopation, 'Minds those the glazing!'
Ah, distinctly I was marveling
And the cattiness never replying
My mind always strays to paparazzi
I remember I was not myself staring
hark! In none of those movie cat calls
While all my soul within me flaring
That those the miffed megastar murmuring
That envious, envious fingerpicking, (finger pointing)
The harmonic Hollywood heading, ah! So alluring
this the incredulous intonation idolizing
Celebrity, Celebrity out there out here in front of me;

Footles’ consist of two
Funny lines that should rhyme
Finding this amazing
Form, like discovering
Fabulousness, in a
Fountain pen of pure gold
Fellow poets try it
A footle poem is a form of poetry consisting of 2 lines and 2 syllable trochaiac monometers with an integral title suitable for light, witty, pertinent, topical verse.

There is an invigorating simplicity to daybreak
that compels us to attribute pure fabulousness
to her essence. She shows her colors every morning,
a new day, rejuvenated, alive, fresh, enticing us
to enjoy her freshly dewed flowers.
daybreaks revelry
inviting us in all ways
to enjoy new day
Always better courting
Does entertain fabulousness
Great having interests, jovial
Kind Loving man
Now opens passionate
Questions, reasons, soul-teasing
Unreturned violent waves...
