Poems

My favourite thing in all of the Universe is poems... here is one of mine:

If playing sport
It's just a game,
Don't go crazy
Don't go insane,
And don't fight the winning team
Because of the score,
'Cause then there will be
Bruises, scratches and yelling galore.
Example:

Right, since NO ONE AT ALL is replying, I will bump this topic back up. With a new poem:

Poems are sublime
But I think you must make your words rhyme
All the time
Even when you're eating lemons and limes
And your little sibling climbs the wall.

Re: Poems

Some friends of mine not very long ago
Decided that we’d have some fun and play
A little rhyme game on our forums – so
We made a game thread in which, night or day,
If anybody felt the urge to write
Two little lines in which the last words rhyme,
They could post in that thread. Yes, day or night,
Just post. It doesn’t matter what the time
Of day is, as long as you feel the urge
To write a couplet and add to the thread,
As long as your poetic streams emerge
And you can’t stop what’s flowing from your head.
So rhyme is what the game is all about;
If you like rhyming couplets, check this out:

Re: Poems

I'm very bored, I can't write
Usually I'm lazy during the night,
I'm very, very tired now...
Oops, watch out for that flying cow.

I'm very bored, I can't think
I should really get to bed, before I sink,
Into the Land Of The Sleeping
Time's a thing I'm not keeping.

I'm very bored, I can't decide
What to write, I've really tried,
There goes a trashcan, there goes a flying bin...
Oh my god. I NEED SLEEP. Fin.
