Array ( [sid] => 101173 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Death By Rhymes [time] => 2005-07-14 13:29:16 [hometext] => This resulted out of sheer boredom...wanted to see how far I could take the rhyming [bodytext] => A bird lifts wings to take flight
stops dead---chained---by unknown fright

Two lovers in bed, sparks ignite

The bride chooses a cream gown over white
maimed by another, but continues despite

Proud peacock bearing feathers so bright

Weary jury's still out on whether to indict

Troubled princess awaits her shining knight

Hunted rabbit wins a much needed respite
moments later his survival instinct leads to incite

In ones empty soul creeps in some light

Grieving widow continues on her lonesome plight

A greedy son screams the assets are his birthright

Cheating husband stumbles home, his alibi airtight
if only his wife had the gift of some foresight
She could've avoided loves venomous bite

Across town a boy and girl frolic under the pale moonlight
He whispers; "I love you", is it true? No, not quite...

Morning rush hour, an agitated man tells another; "Go fly a kite!"
the other driver merely smiles back, waves...(polite)

Brother and sister reach for the same toy---break into fight

A cautious girl takes a boy up on his dinner invite

Loving husband kisses his wife goodnight

Now I'm afraid this poem has reached it's height...
so I'll thank you all for reading my crazy write ; ) [comments] => 16 [counter] => 365 [topic] => 73 [informant] => hauntedscorp [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 41 [ratings] => 9 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract )

Cute rhymes...but my question is...How much of that is random, and how much is drawn from your own life??? :)

this is one of those excellent gently flowing floating
types i love so very muchly, the real in reality, the
breath that makes the poem's breathing so full of life,
so beautiful in its simplicity,

This was great. You were feisty then too.
The best poems just flow without a care where they go...you know?
