A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Speed

Another day has run away
No time to stop
No time to play
Maybe tomorrow we'll find some time
To just relax and just unwind
*Sigh*

Passing dream

Lost in a candy coated dream
Where no one is exactly who they seem
All strangers passing near and far
Heaving burdens of who they are
Wondering when and how and where
They seem to have all ended up there
But in the end we must agree
If we try we can spend time pleasantly

Time fly

Come on home
We're soon, soon grown
Before you know
Our tails we'll show
So use these days
In memorable ways

Tourney 1

Sunburst here and another one there
The thrill of summer's in the air
A goal let in and ten others shut out
Boy and girls run wild about
We all know when games begin
That keeping score is a major sin

I spI

I spy with my little eye
A tinker, a tailor, a soldier and spy
A muddle mush of celluloid
Carrying names much deployed
But wonderfully dense and lush too
Proving real worth is a strange, strange brew

Better

Better to keep silent
When words are just too sharp
Better to be quiet
When tempers are running cross
Better to escape
When reality's just too much

Young blood

Let's all run together to the centre of the field
Where we'll display for everyone
And prove that we won't yield
We'll run and kick and play
Carrying the ball across the way
One day we'll find the net
On that you can certainly bet!

Song

A tiny song to remind us
It won't be long before they leave
No looking back
It won't stop the future
Just hang tight to every moment
And love all the little ones

Auto-bot

Aaahhh, another ride off into the night
So tired now, no strength left to fight
What makes them think that this is fair
What makes them think that we won't care
No thought to others just what is mine
We'll screw you over so we can shine

Holes

Summer's heat can burn
But the fire within will yearn
To quench the rapid flare
We must do what we dare
Or watch while rays sear souls
While we crumble into dark holes
