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!

Try again

We are aggrieved to say the least
When after all, we came in peace
No apologies for this last outburst
But then again, it was not the first
We're sorry now, to have tried
Yet we now no longer have to hide

Good times

Family, friends, laughter and wine
Always make an evening shine
Knowing that you're surrounded by love
Is the biggest gift from up above
Sharing with those most dear
Makes the important things very clear

Influence

Boy, you're just growing up so fast

Childhood, we thought, was going to last

But boys and looks are now your thing

Texting, replacing the telephone's ring

We hoped to have you just a while longer

To mold & guide you, to make you stronger

But the world, it seems, had other plans

It's the media & friends now holding your hands
