your dose of prose: caring

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 3^rd, 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!

Lost

When manners counted above all things
We were then quite civilized beings
Now the free for all we see
Has resulted in vulgar company
No more polish, spit or shine
Those all belong to a more proper time

The Shore

The wave washes over
Covering all the sand
The weeds and rocks are swept away
Leaving wet and soggy land

Just as the earth recovers
And the sand crabs start to peak
The ocean swells again
The waves are back to bash the meak

But through the constant pounding
The unending, senseless roar
The earth stands stoically silent
Always renewing its shore
