With my students I discussed the other day,
the famous line "Gather ye rosebuds while ye may."
Then after the prayer, with which our school day closes,
I heard the headmaster ask, "Anyone know what happened to my roses?"
And giggling to myself, I thought, "No effing way!"
Robert Herrick with line& rhyme
& shapes made poetics chime
But with his form he id nit srick
penning many a sensual lyric
Extension mind
Sentinel eye
Neural suit churns grafted skys'd
..and lies
This is a parody of a poem displayed in my notes.
There she goes, his paramour,
Clad (of course) in silk-du-jour,
Jiggling from head to floor
As though he’d never seen her before!
When he steals another glance,
How drastically she’s changed her stance:
The silk is now remember-ance
As will soon become his pants.
Verse-Upon my knee I come to thee
with my concern,to you,this plea
Chorus-I heard you speak,and so I wait
until my heart,with you relate
verse-so many times I ask and ask
inadequate to do this task
chorus-I know,I know,I hear your call
yet still hold back,frightened to fall
verse-at last I see and know within
strengthened by you,I can begin
chorus-A simple verse,from you above
to show to others Jesus love
after Robert Herrisk TO GOD
