Day 13- Tanka Poem

Our life is a dream
We all have a connection
Love is forever
Some went before us in life
And those who are yet to come.

Day 12-LImerick

There once was a dog from the city,
who's friend was a sweet little kitty,
They went shopping all day
in the malls and would stray,
to the stores that were happy and pretty.

Day 9-Instant Poetry

Vicki
Happy, Spiritual, Friendly, Helpful
Sibling of Dolly,David, Valerie, and Jamie
Lover of reading, writing, peaceful times
Who fears not getting things done
Who needs lots of love and attention!
Who gives Everything I can to the things I do!
Who would like to see my children all be happy
Resident of The World

Day 5-If I were poems

If I were a speckled little frog,
I'd be happy living in my bog and I'd hop around all day and
eat fies in the way.
I'd be a happy full speckled little frog.

Day 4- If you were poems

I am not in love with these I came up with, but I tried.

If you were a credit card,
and I was a wallet,
We'd buy us a shipyard,
and add tons to our debt!


If you were a camera,
and I was the film,
We'd take a trip to Panama,
and photograph a hill.

Day 3-Fractured fairy tale

Original:

Jack and Jill
Went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after.

The rest of the story:
Jack and Jill just got the bill
For Jack's trip to the doctor.
Jack said "Ack!" I broke my back
And we're in debt to the rafters!

Day 2-Poetweet

When I think of all the books I have read

and all the ones in my to-be-read pile, I smile!

I love books so much, so what can I do?

I can go to work in a Library near home,

so now I can smile all day!

National Poetry Month again!

Here's a couplet for the 1st of April.

What you said about making it rhyme,
has got me in a tizzy at this time.
