Sing

By special request for Joyce

I can write about sang
I can write about song
I can make it short
Or I can make it long

I can write at home
I can write on the go
I can even write about
Things I don’t know

I can write with a pen
I can write with a pencil
If it makes you happy
I will use a big stencil

Whatever you desire
It does'nt really matter
If you get hungry
I‘ll write “The Pu Pu Platter”

It’s ladies choice
I can do anything
But please don’t ask me
To write about "Sing"

SING!!!!

Not even a D Jay could write a song about Vee Jay...

Dr. Suess

Dr. Suess would be proud of me... I started to make up some stupid names for planets that i could write about... I did not want to put too much energy into this one ...but I could!

Thanks Linda!

hi

hi
i read the comment u posted on 'waterpologrl's poetry blog about her poem "Shadow"...i'm pretty sure that's what it was.
but i noticed that you were saying something about how her poem didn't flow in one part because of the 6 syllables and 7 syllables or something like that. and all i wanted to say, with all due respect, is that poetry isn't about using a specific amount of words or making sure every word at the end of the sentence rhymes...it's about what the person is trying to say.
i really hope im not offending you...one thing i hate about posting comments is that people can't hear the tone i'm speaking in...ha. ya, well bye.

Flowing

Dear Brianna... You are right! poetry does not have to flow or rhyme and I have written some prose myself... I made the comment ..."Is this meant to flow or is it more of a prose style? ... If it is supposed to flow then count your syllables" ...to Waterpolo because I sensed that she was trying to make it flow and when I sent my thoughts on it I did use the phrase "IF... it is..." Like you said it is hard to stick your neck out and give an honest opinion for fear of a tone or attitude... I did not realize that Waterpolo was brand new to this site as we are and if I knew that I probably would have held back a lot to not scare her off... I want you to know that i have made comments of nothing but high praise and admiration to writers of poems that do not flow or rhyme... I just had a sense that Waterpolo was trying to make it rhyme and flow better.

I do love the fact that we live in a country where we are allowed to be ourselves and express our selves as we please... Thank you for not being rude to me for expressing mine!

Also I would love to hear any advice that you may offer to me about my poems!

Thanks,

Ray AKA yobarney
