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!

Longing for summer

The sky is touched with yellow
The leaves are full of green
The air is full of nice sounds, crisp and clean
The birds begin to twitter and fade into the coming night
For as the shadows stalk their prey,
Everything vanishes from sight


I had no inspiration tonight, so I cheated and posted a poem I wrote on June 4th, 1987. So, don't laugh at the high school try!
