Premium MemberWhat Makes You Feel Poetry 2

I feel sad my friend drifted away --- a limerick gave me a laugh.

Should I Write of Chicken Wings?

Should I write of grand romance,
of star-crossed lovers tell?
I've not known enough of that
to really do it well.

Should I write of torrid sex,
hot and steamy affairs?
I'm old enough now to see
that there's no meaning there.

Should I write heroic tales
full of daring and lore?
But what tale could I tell you
that you've not heard before?

Should I write of politics,
get mad and take side?
But most people won't listen
if you're not of their tribe.

Should I paint a word-picture,
delightful imagery?
There's thousands of small poems
on sunset, dawn, and trees.

Should I write a Limerick,
give you the best one yet?
But who could do better than
that man from Nantucket?

...hmm...or....

Should I write of chicken wings?
A bar food mighty fine,
all those great dipping sauces,
but not too hot with mine...

Too much heat buries the flavor.

Premium MemberI Finally Write a Serious Poem

      I wrote a poem so darn serious 
      It seemed my readers went delirious 
          So I shortened her a bit
          Although I have to admit
      I rather liked being Miss Tear E. Ous


Premium MemberThe Man Obsessed with Statistics

Dad writes articles chock-full of stats.
Just refer to his latest on rats!
Both my brothers, my sis,
Mom, and I all say this:
We'd prefer sagas starring cute cats.
 

Name now one man but Dad who would say,
"Evil rats on no star live" today.
Next, I'll make you say 'WOW!'
with my ana* on cows,
Then my top spot award, I'll display.”

Premium MemberFunny New Years Resolutions For 24

Quote By Poet "The pen is the tongue for many writers."

Welcome to the new twenty-four,
I am laughing on the floor.
Pen you need to change,
tongue you need to rearrange.
No talking just write a lot more.

I’ve travelled back in time to meet with William Shakespeare 
My research turned up something and it’s that that brought me here
He was meant to be so clever
And I need to find out whether
It’s true that he can even write if he is full of beer

I understand he wrote a sonnet standing on his head
And scrawled a limerick while he was falling out of bed
He’d write while he was pulling weeds
He’d write while he was sowing seeds
And even during cuddles with his wife, or so she said

My Time Machine took many years to build and then perfect 
So I could check out facts too long ago to recollect
With thirty-eight plays; give or take 
I’ll prove that Shakespeare was a fake
I think perhaps old Shakespeare led some kind of weirdo sect 

So here I am in Shakespeare’s house, where Anne is baking cakes
He’s writing, judging by the sound a quill on paper makes
Anne said, “My Bill is writing now,
His quill makes that unholy row
I’ll ask him to come talk to you… as soon as he awakes.”

Premium MemberThe Poet

There lived this kind, gentle poet who rhymed
Her verses and jingles were so well-timed
Then she tried simple free verse
Lines that would’ve made saints curse
Poetry formed with writing so mistimed

Premium MemberDarkness, Fear and Fright

~ Inside-Out Limerick ~ 

    Darkness, fear and fright
    Here it is, late at night
  I unfurl my quill amidst the chill
  Returns once again the thrill
    Of terror I write ~ mythic rite

Premium MemberSimply Fun

there was a girl named Alice
preferred to write while braless
 	wrote poems by rules
	while wearing her mules
her fingers were getting a callous

the contest rules were too hard
needed written by a true bard
	she wrote anyway
	hoping that one day
someone would say “blank card!”

her happy chance came from John
who meant just write for the fun!
	a simple contest
	wrote her very best
her ideas were simply spawn

judgement day came much too fast
she had to enter her cast
	it was simply judged
	nothing had been fudged
she felt her freedom at last!

Premium MemberA Riddle a Wordsmith

You try to teach but don’t listen,
talking all over me again;
Threw up that riddle
from a high pedestal;
Tossed it to a wordsmith, I win.

Premium MemberWhy Don'T He Write

You may think me a bit of a jerk,
and I thought I knew how this stuff worked,
but my Soup emails dash
right straight into the trash,
and it’s making me a tad berserk!

For a somewhat articulate guy,
that was clear as the mud in my eye.
    as a clarification

Premium MemberWriting Prompts

Playing a game of connect the dots
my pen is alive with wild thoughts;
May say I don’t play nice  
I just ignore that voice; 
Flying without writing prompts

‘Do not disturb’ sign on my phone,  
the struggle is real with time zones; 
Too tired to feel alive 
can’t miss this Instagram Live, 
maybe I will just send in my clone.
