Can you wite a poem about the orange boxes?
I am a poet.
Why?
I think I would rather be a painter, but I am not.
Well, for instance, delia is starting
a painting. I drop in.
"Sit down and have a drink" she says.
I drink; we drink. I look up.
"You have a BOUNCY CASTLE in it."
"Yes, it needed something there."
"Oh." I go and the days go.
I drop in again. The painting is going, and I go.
The days go by. I drop in. The painting
is finished. "Where's the BOUNCY CASTLE?"
All that's left is just letters, "It was too much," delia says.
But me? One day I am thinking of a color.
I write a line about orange.
Pretty soon it is a whole page of words, not lines.
Then another page. There should be so much more, not of orange, of words, of how terrible orange is and life.
Days go by.
It is even prose. I am a real poet.
My poem is finished and I haven't mentioned orange yet.
It's twelve poems, I call ORANGES.
And one day in a gallery I see delia's painting, called BOUNCY CASTLE

that went on so long I don't know if you still want the poem.
Walking on the beaten path
I met a man needing a bath
he said he met a wee family of foxes
that were trying to steal oranges out of boxes.

Spider oh Spider oh what prose
tis the first i see of yours
the painting, the drink
of orange, blue and pink
blending in gently i suppose
your bouncy castle in a frame
and 15 minutes of glorious fame
it hangs there for you to see
somethings are just meant to be
so hold your breath and let it sink
while the rest of us have a drink :))
to you II

One day I found an orange box
With blue socks and locks
then i came upon a fox
this fox carried blue socks
it said ma'am have you seen my orange box with locks and socks
I said no I live in the bronx
Ok i give in i ate the oranges wore the socks and locked my husband up with the locks

I love those orange boxes
they allude me like foxes
I try with all my might
but still get no delight
i am only here to have fun
but deep down i still want one
then along comes spider
who seems to be a witty fighter
And yet I have but one wish
thats not to play the sea eagles squish
i have not done this since school
were i had no english skills
So this is just for you
simply because i like you
''SQUISH''

Most on yahoo had ugly badges
some were very proud of them
but the colour orange clashed with decor
So yahoo trashed most of the badges!!

Orange
I saw a painting in a hall
In a gallery on the wall
Bouncy castle was it's name
But when I looked inside the frame
There was a spider there instead
fast asleep and in it's bed
with delia by it's side
and lots of poems cast aside
The reason for this I say
is too much time on Q & A!

Orange boxes it seems
Nothing but a sad reminder
Of the addiction I got in
Day in and day out
I roam and see who's around
Sadly I stayed
Hope to get a glimpse
Of him one day
Unto this time to my dismay
Orange boxes
Was just a reminder
What a fool I've been
Lingerin' in

A real poet sits,
Orange box open.
Prose spills forward in melodic tones,
Overture to the soul in monochrome.
Orange box closes,
Melodic tones depart leaving souls searching.
A real poet?

I used to have an orange box
I used to keep it full of socks
But then sadly one very bad day
Yahoo took my box away
So now that I have no box
I've had to stop wearing socks
My feet are really beginning to freeze
I want a box.Did I say please?
