lovechild asked in Arts & HumanitiesPoetry · 9 years ago

First off, last line's a joke HEHE C/C?

I cannot view your question at this time...

I don't know if you bother viewing mine;

We have been on and off again in spurts

but when I see your poems are sad it really hurts...

I no longer look for things that refer to me,

I no longer need this forum to see...si!

I need friends I've made and now they're known

by the numbers saved in my cell phone.

I will not deny I make some dumb mistakes

but I will go the distance that it takes

to run the gauntlet as if I were a knight

or knightess- my own word, is that all right?

The person who you're looking for not found-

I would place a wager that they're still around.

The only thing I fear is that I'll fail

to live long enough to write our tale-

I guess I could just change all names and then

I could go back to being Yesu Ben.

    Life is a one way street....

    finding a friend on the road

    is merely chance

    ......

    walking together is the challenge

    I have had a few friends on Yahoo Answers who changed their screen names and profile pictures so many times, that I didn't know who they were ariginally.

    I still love the wild Lovechild ramble.

    That's the second C, if you need the first others are better than I.

    Thank you.

    Edit - perhaps I should note that wild is a wonderful property to have in your poems. I hope you never lose it. I categorised wild along with free.

    I love the work, "amok". Used it recently in another answer here. For some reason, YA/P is often amok-ish, but it is still road worthy.

    Clever be you art thou! :)

    I enjoy 'occasional verse' - poetry which is commitedly, and facetiously, upoetic. I took considerable pleasure in the nonchalance of this piece - its chattiness and the way that it doesn't try too hard because it could care less.

    It is a delicious piece of casual yackety. So I found it even more challenging than I might have that the metre keeps breaking down so spectacularly.

    Your first three lines are regular, and your fourth very nearly so: my ear has got used to heroic couplets. When the metre breaks, it is like having a straw poked in my ear.

    I'm not saying that poking your readers' ear with a straw is always wrong - but it seems out of place in such lightweight - fun - poetry (even just a little bit mean).

    I wish you'd fix the metre. But if you won't, it's still a decent piece of work.

    Missy

    Milady, I dub thee Dame Lovechild, now an honorary member of the Order of the Knights Templar, but officially a knight. You are no longer a retainer or a sergeant, as your skills and sapience have proved you are more than worthy. You will be the first of many woman I hope, but until then you shall be at my side at all times, acting as my assistant. Take heed, for there will come a day where you will be free of this charge, and will lead your own order. You need not flail for purchase anymore. You have made it.

    My Dame, you do not make dumb mistakes, only smart ones. Always remember that.

    Congrats
