Cant think of a thread title

[Marctwo]

I quite like your style, as it goes.
Yes, it's raw but it's cool, I suppose.
But although it is cracking,
I think that it's lacking
A tambourine and some bongos.

 

[Rob]

Can't stop, can't stop
soon my head will pop
poems and rhyming
are doing my head in
oh please, make it stop

 

[Marctwo]

I'm afraid it appears you are hooked
And I bet you wish you hadn't looked
At this innocent thread
That gets inside your head
But you looked and got hooked - now you're f...ed

 

[Rob]

I am leaving work for the pub
then on home for some grub
I will stop thinking like this
by drinking a Guinness
oh how I do like the pub (then a club)

 

[Marctwo]

That sounds like a solid idea,
Get this thread from your head using beer.
But this raises an issue,
You leave and I'll miss you
So *have some madeira, m'dear.

* Obscure reference to the 'Flanders and Swann' song.

 

[Hertz van Rental]

Enough with the limerick's.
As from now poems will only be accepted in iambic pentameter.

 

[Marctwo]

Pentameter is fine for song;
In spoken verse the gap's too long.
I think the best thing, for a while,
Is maybe try it freestyle.

 

[Hertz van Rental]

Or perhaps haiku

 

[Marctwo]

Haiku is OK
But I prefer a good rhyme.
That's just how I am.

 

[Artemis]

Did we all forget arty?
Although these poems are very arty
ill join in
and end with a big grin
and know that I am smarty

 

[Marctwo]

It's not an arty farty thread,
Just put in verse what's in your head.
It's not important how it's said
As long as it's poetic.
The guide, it seems that Hertz would say,
Is limericks have had their day.
But I'm not bothered either way,
The meter's just cosmetic.

 

[terri]

Though not up to your speed, I must say
Reading this thread has quite made my day
Offer up no excuses – pray, exhaust all your muses -

Carry on with this thread, straightaway!



:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

[Marctwo]

For you're poem I'd certainly rank you
And for joining this thread I would thank you.
But don't rush away,
You have so much to say.
Keep them coming and maybe I'll spank you.

 

[Artemis]

I like people to have a nice day,
It makes it so they stay,
So without further adue,
although sometimes its due,
I say Lumi should say Hey!

 

[Calliope]

Oh what a fun thread
I'm reading this instead
Of spending time
With this husband of mine
But I'll fix that in the bed... :blushing:
