-- but I'm not even tryin'

This is one of my favorite poems i've wrote...the "meter" or flow (not an iambic or anything just syllable count) i made up....6667666766613 has meaning to that as well...the 666 syllable parts are dark, the 7 syllables is less dark the 13 is both good and evil, lucky or un-lucky ^_~

"My Love"

Bloom ancient deity

the whisper of ill screams,

the black vein of the crow,

shine gloom of white mistress night

with gown of blacken rope.

Slim sight and diamond eyes

beauty queen of pale kings,

i betroth your hand in dream.

My lips drip blood in touch

legs quiver with hearts shake

our eyes entwined in fate.

take me tonight, hands held, hostile smiles, loves reach and free.

edit: haha i just remembered this one a friend wrote that gave me a good laugh.

roses are red

violets are blue

some poems rhyme

this one doesn't.

Coney Island

We were young then

kneeling happy by the tide

and it was pure

momma waves drowsy

smiling from the blanket

and all was love

and with clam shell shovels

we add sand to a wall

that will hold back the ocean

Can the poem contain the phrase "King Kong's balls"?

How about this classic nursery rhyme:-

Georgie Porgie

Georgie Porgie pudding and pie,

Kissed the girls and made them cry

When the boys came out to play,

Georgie Porgie ran away.

You can't expect me to compete with the masters that have submitted here! I will quote my favorite instead-

Fuzzy Wuzzy

was a bear

Fuzzy Wuzzy

had no hair

Fuzzy Wuzzy

Wasn't very Fuzzy

was he?

You are my Yo-Yo man

take me in your hand, I'm your spinning weal

Twirl me high to the sky

then go down to the ground

whip me round and round

I'm your spinning weal

Your my Yo-Yo man .

Don't pinch this Poem , I think it might be a classic one day when I have it published :)

To rhyme is sublime,

not to rhyme is a crime.

The sentence? Hard time,

locked up with a mime

or a tick bearing lyme.

Here's to the ones who can

do it

and

Here's to the ones who can"t

do it.

Might the ones who can

do it

show the ones who can't do it

how to do it

and

here's to it!

Cheers, *pops* a Heineken

Once upon a time

I decided not to rhyme

I was hated

berated

greekly

demasculated

but now I

do whatever

the hell I please

for better

or

verse.
