contest, then be sure to let the sponsor know by adding 
A I on top of your poem, so the sponsor of the contest 
can then decide whether

Premium MemberUsing AI in soup contests - Inspired by Unseeking Seeker’s and Tania's blogs

Your cheating ways, you've sunk so low,
to win contests - that isn't right.
You've used AI, few sponsors know
Your cheating ways

MY ideas form, it’s time to write,
(Unlike AI, my brain is slow)
When poem’s done, I feel delight!

But AI wins, it's quite a blow
It's unfair and I feel uptight
We're NOT blind sheep, I want to show
Your cheating

Premium MemberStop Using the Finger

I’m told the pen’s mighty and outwits the sword
but my finger is stronger and won’t be ignored.
It pokes and it swipes and it rants in a roast
then it quickly DELETEs to disguise my last post.

Though swords, they can cut, and pens, they can shame
the press of a button initiates flame.
All humor aside, I’ll admit it’s

Premium MemberUsing the word love in any situation


Oh, how fearful of the word “lovel”,we are!
Even between just friends and families.
Yet we hesitate to say it?

Yes~ people are terrified of that word.
 I just do not understand.
In my case, it means, I accept and honor you fully.
How can I not? It does not mean" I am hot to trot."

I have and have had,

Premium MemberUsing John Denver Song Titles to Create More Songs of You

It always did seem On the Wings of a Dream
I’d Fly Away with you In My Heart -
through Singing Skies and Dancing Waters,
for Darling, The Music is You,
and The Gift You Are you have been from the start.

My Rhymes and Reasons, my divine Aspenglow,
Somethin’ About You, I can’t let go.
It seems I keep saying Goodbye

Premium Memberwho is using my hands

some poems write themselves in six minutes
my last two which I cannot honestly claim
took my hands four minutes all together

who is using my hands?
I am a puppet to their wishes and whims
they use me as if I am a mere device.

Premium MemberBroken


He was a child
Dark hair, blue eyes
Smiling, laughing, delighting

He tried not to cry
While pain was absorbed
By his heart and soul

He invited the fear
Crimson shadows, doubts
Despair and hollow feelings

When life turned to dark
His light turned down, reflecting
All the silent sighs, the blend…

Of isolation, remote depression
Flowing in the veins
Where the needle sent its flame

Edging him from the

Premium Memberdaddy potato head was using his hoe

Daddy potato head was using his hoe in a wicked way
Chopping up parsley and rhubarb, throwing it past Monday
Tuesday did not like it, it is shriveled and dried up he said.
Daddy Potato head did not realize he was making them dead.

Premium MemberLove Poem Using Words Four Letters Or Less

Your soft lips make me so glad that I am with you now. 
When I am in your arms, and you hold me, I feel so good some how. 

You are the one that I need to be with, its so true. 
When we are in a room full of talk my ears only hear

Form Tomorrow Start Using a Bag

Form the habit of using a bag:
Along the road hide your ugly rag,
About the contents of the bag brag,
Ready to lies and arguments drag
Or would you like Nasty Tongues to wag:
The Press you would have loved to gag…

Learn to price bag and pick up the bag:
Watchers won’t glimpse in your world your lag,
Even as you

Using Technology To Track Us

In the land where sunshine kisses the sand,
Florida's shores, a technological hand.
Through wires and waves, its eyes ever keen,
Tracking our steps, in this digital scene.

From Tampa Bay's gleam to Miami's bright glow,
Smart devices whisper, so the records can grow.
Data points captured, where we roam and wander,
An unseen web woven, our movements to ponder.

Satellites above, their

Using the Ocean

Using the vast ocean,
I look deep at the ocean, to drown out the stupidity,
I look at the sea, to drown out the violence of young people,
The more I look at the sea, a thousand times, the more lucid my soul is,
I look at the sea, to drown out the arrogance of talking hyenas,
	
I look deep

Self-Guidance Using Prudence

My friend, cheer up
Never lose your cool
Act not like a fool
Start your first step

There is a sure remedy
Find it out with hope
Hard-work has a scope
To hug it, be ever ready

Time is very limited
Waste it not my dear
My words do you hear?
Let not duty be omitted

Thousand failures may arise
No success may be met
But, if optimism you
