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!

Late

Pull the sleep from my eyes
And take me to the edge of day
Show me cares both great and small
And help all my thoughts to delay

I've grown up fast and complacent too
Wondering what the fuss was all about
Now I wish that I'd been more awake
And followed conviction without any doubts

But now I understand, I can finally see
Why all those words were spoken
And lectured over and over again
It was to stop this life from being broken
