your dose of prose

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!

Party!

Clad in feathers head to toe
Put on your mask & then let's go
Party lights will hide the flaws
Those fake nails will look like claws
Sparkle here and shine over there
Some extra hold mousse to slick your hair
All hallow's eve is not yet here
But we don't care for it's very near

Boiling point

Stretched taut like a band
Trying hard to steady my hand
No call for violence but it breaks
And afterwards my heart aches
I just hope that they break free
And achieve inspite of me

BHS

A wondrous time in any life
Of hopes and dreams and teenage strife
Not yet there but peeking in
Just waiting for life to begin
One step closer you are this year
And when you're gone, we'll miss you my dear

It's now or never

We're all booked and waiting now
Everyone has told us how
It's a dream made real for us
In illusions we've come to trust
But we will see now with our eyes
If it's solid or like fireflies
A wave of excitement & indifference too
A fantasy both old and new

Happy, Happy!

Happy birthday little man
I love your smile, your heart, your tan!
Double digits here we come
Find your focus & you'll have fun!!

CIBC

To your success he wrote
Make the fortune
To float you boat
You can do it with relative ease
Seize the day
Say thank you and please

Entitlement

I want more, it's not enough
I haven't worked
And my life's not tough
But It's due to me just because
Others have it and its there
So if I don't get it I'llcause a fuss!

Sleep over!

Let's laugh and play
No sleep for us today
A birthday bash with giggly friends
Is the best way to start one year
When the other ends!

Half full haiku

Walk slow and you'll see
All that passes has beauty
The world can be good

Tiptoe

Little mist fall over us
Create that shield we crave
Caress our skin with softness
Envelope us in a gentle wave

As we fall into that dream
In which we all are grand
Guide us softly so we don't fall
In fact, please hold our hand
