*POETRY SLAM!*

[poignardpoppet]

Hey found like a kind of baby-ish poem I made in Primary School lol! But it got printed in a book thats on sale over here, so I'm happy!

My Dad

My dad is fat,
although he'd kill me if I told you that,
Just read this poem,
If you want to know him!

I love my dad because he is really funny
Especially when he makes fun of mummy
My little sister gets all the attention
Me? No! Not even a mention

My dad has ginger sidies
Which he never ever tidies
He has multicoloured hair
Which will always be there

My dad has spikey cheeks
Becuase he hasn't shaved in weeks
He works in Holland which I think is cool
I tell everyone, even in school

He's quite greedy when it comes to foos,
And he is so very rude!
He thinks he's cool, hes 38
But to me and my friends hes just out of date!

He always takes control ofthe tv
Just think yourself lucky you aren't me!
How can he see it with his eyes closed tight,
And see me making faces when I'm out of sight?

So that's my dad packed all in one,
And I am his youngest son!
Look at your dad and see if hes like mine
You never know, there might be a sign!

lol! That was published in 2002 when I was 10! lol! Its so stupid when I look back on it! I found this really depressing poem, and it was pretty good, which I'll post soon!

I found another poem of mine to post


Untitled

She looks upon him with lovesick eyes.
Her heart begins to race and her spirit flies.

Just one touch from him, any simple caress,
makes her heart pitter patter inside her chest.

Their eyes meet and lock in a loving glance,
sending her into a passion filled trance.

He kisses her softly and brings her into his embrace,
then he rains gentle kisses all over her face.

In his arms she feels so warm.
Like no one in the world could do her harm.

His love feels so good, it makes her feel whole.
His love feeds her body, as well as her soul.

Love has its pitfalls, love hurts and is blind,
but if love is like this it's a gem of a find.
Sweet, amazing, patient and kind.

[poignardpoppet]

OMG Thats like one of the best poem I've ever read! You are truly talented!

[P34e aka Jezzy]

Thank you Þºîgñå®dÞºÞÞè†! That is so sweet of you . I am truly grateful for the compliment ;D

Yeah, but I'm still waiting for some hollypop poems!

[hollypop]

I know.. I guess I'm stalling. I'm kind of chickening out- sorry.

I'll post but you have to promise to be nice, okay?

[poignardpoppet]

I promise! I ain't like I'm going to say, thats the worst poem I've ever heard! I'll be nice;D

[hollypop]

okay.. here's something I wrote awhile ago. I never took any writing classses so I'm not sure if I typed it correctly or anything like that. Here goes nothing


*UNTITLED*

Through the tears of realization
your hopes and dreams soon fade away

You learn to grow with all the walls
getting higher everyday

And when all your memories and fears
exhaust you through the night

The spirit of your being meets the wind
for one last flight

To the waiting arms of knowledge that
the wise ones have to give

Release the chains that bind your
soul to pain,
set it free to finally live

[P34e aka Jezzy]

Yeah, but I'm still waiting for some hollypop poems

as am I hollypop and I promise I will not be mean and I'm sure they are terrific!

[hollypop]

lol - p34e and poignardpoppet, I just did post one of mine. Scroll up a bit.

[P34e aka Jezzy]

Why were you afraid hollypop ? That was so beautiful, you have the gift of words and you used them perfectly. I am truly impressesd

[poignardpoppet]

OMG Hollypop! That was brilliant! And no it wasn't written "wierd"! It was written beautifully! I can't get over why you were so worried! It is Brilliant! My Goodness! My vocabulary (very small BTW) can't even describe it! Someone help me!

"Release the chains that bind your
soul to pain,
set it free to finally live"

I liked this bit at the end! It's a really good ending! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT !
