Poem #1

HO-HUM - I went skiing

WOW - Puff!

Wee!

Big Air over the table top

Wind in the face

Down, down, down

Up, up, up over the Whoopee

Bam!

Smash!

Crash! into the snow I go

People Poem

Homer Simpson

"D'oh!"

"Homer Simpsoy? I'll see that he gets it."

Slower in mind and body that a sloth

Known to gorge foods from low-protein gruel to Guatemalan insanity peppers

Impervious to all but Marge

Cinquain

White

Powder Puff

Fall into snow

Jump off the cliff

Look

Fats Domino Picture

Fats was a great musician, he also had a great disposition

He would play away, on the piano all day,

And his head looked like a piston.

In math he wasn't the smartest, But Red Grooms was a great artist.

He would paint away on the canvas all day,

And he thought Lemonheads were the tartest.

The artist painted the musician in a piano playing position.

He spun around while he sang a sound

And now he don't sing, he goes fishin'.

Sonnet #1

In the beginning of my life I was

A baby from whom much noise did come.

I always wanted something from my mom,

Who was going crazy from my constant buzz.

I would play with animals made of fuzz,

And to the shopping store my mom would run

To get me gifts, so that I would have fun

Till Brandon came and visited; my 'cuz.

Yet now I have grown quite tall,

And my day are filled with going to school,

And trying not to bend the car's fender.

My mom spends all her money at the mall,

And on my sister who thinks she's so cool.

My childhood days I will always remember.

Sonnet #2

When I was born my life was so happy,

I'd sleep and cry and wake up at midnight.

My mom's inner clock was in such a fright,

That sometimes her friends saw her as snappy.

Age four - I learn to use toilets for crappy.

I misbehave and am full of much spite,

For school is next year, and it's in my sight,

And my mom, at times, goes slappy-slappy.

My mom doesn't spank me anymore,

I outweigh her by just a few pounds now.

And I can outrun her without a doubt.

Instead she tells me to go to the store,

And pick up a frozen piece of a cow,

To which I reply, "OK", and don't pout.

Imagery Words Poem

The cold hand of no tomorrow

Reaching through the dry fall night.

No mega-merger can stop it,

No fortress built of money so solid it can't permeate

To the deep center of the soul

It carves a hole the biggest SUV can't fill.

Toiling to clog it with bills,

'Till peace is found in the intangibles.

The Fly (iambic pentameter)

A dot that's black and round upon the wall

A spot to dim the light that's thrown on all.

It rides the wind and sails atop the breeze

At picnic time it lands and eats the cheese.

To try and kill it is illogical.

"Some Days I Feel Like..." (simile poem)

Some days I feel like

A white rhinoceros

in a zoo

with plenty of food and water

without threats

and without companions

or anything to do

but the mundane things it always does.

Poem about a painting

My wings are so big, they drag me down

It's a great wonder I can stand up at all

Can I grow wings through my night gown?

Psssh, Shah, Whatever, Brick wall!

Then let me go to bed and sleep

Hurry up and leave my room

Don't talk to me like that, little creep

Or you'll soon find yourself in a tomb

Limerick story

There once was a guy named Larry, his driveway was really scary

His car was broke, and his house was a joke

Cause his biz was the Death Valley Ferry

To elaborate on his house - it's fit for him and his spouse

But he lives alone, in his large home

And his bedroom he shares with a mouse

In school he always did flunk, gym class because he's a chunck

His F's in that class caused him not to pass

High school, so he became a punk

One day he played the Lotto, "It could happen" was his motto

He scratched off the piece and hs face did crease

To a smile and said,"Oh my God, oh!"
