A Poetry Chain

[ShyKiagana]

Music, music
its all around us.
there is no day
that I don't listen to music.
When I hear one,
I always hope to hear
the one I love to listen.

When I hear my favorite music,
I can't help
but to want to dance to it.
Maybe sing.
Its always my favorite
even if it feels old.
I will always love that song.

Sorry if its so short xD

hmm... write about a picture you saw that you liked.

[Unnoticed]

I could see the white
steeds, running swift through the shadow and
light of the forest
feet pounding
breath fogging from cold
wind howling in time
with their mournful cries
as the world tore itself apart


write a poem about being lost.

[SheWolfWarrior]

Alone and lost I wander.
Wondering when I'll be found.
The dark forest beckons me to stay within it's dark hold.
But I keep running, until I see the sun.

Alone and lost I wander.
Wondering if I'll be found.
The eyes in the forest beckon me to come towards them.
But I keep running, until I see the sun.

Alone and lost I wander.
Wondering if I will ever be found.
The small light of the sun beckons me to leave.
So I keep running, until I make it to the sun.

Alone and lost I wandered.
Wondering if I would be found.
But the small light beckoned me to leave.
And now here I run, free in the bright light of the sun.

Write about your favorite pet. Or a pet in general.

[catcrazyme]

To be sung to a tune

He is cute,
He is furry,
He likes the taste of curry,
He is orange,
He is nice,
He likes to play with mice,
He is loved,
He is happy,
He is certainly very nappy,
He is hungry,
He is a tabby,
He is really really flabby,
He is a cat,
He is a killer,
He is a window-siller,
He is playful,
He is kind,
No courage you will find,
He is silly,
He is a dog,
He thinks he is a god,
He is sassy,
He is gassy,
He
Is
My
Little
Jungle.

That was so fun! Try it someday! Write about a clean sheet of paper.

[ApprenticeCrone]

Wonder of wonders, a blank sheet's been found.
Now what will it become? Something silly or profound?

It could be the start of a new epic tale
Or a korigami flower, beautiful and frail.
I could fold it or cut it, or mark it with paints
It could be the next poem to inspire the Saints!

It could be a letter to my great-great Aunt Beulah,
Or a treasure map to make my niece cry Hallelujah
I could crease it and fold it and make it a crane,
I could write a riddle to drive my brother insane

A cross-hatched full portrait might be in its future
Or make it political, and it becomes a brochure
Perhaps plan a party, make it into invitations?
A clean piece of paper fits all sorts of situations.

Wonder of wonders, a blank sheet's been found.
Now what will it become? Something silly or profound?



New prompt:
stagefright

[catcrazyme]

My legs quiver on the stage,
My face is whiter than a blank page,
My hands slick with sweat,
My brow is already wet.

Maria, who always does fine,
It is already her time,
One more act then it's me,
I feel like I'm about to pee.

I think of my mom,
Sitting listening to a song,
Will I fail?
What if I trip over that pail?

Maria's done,
She shined brighter than the sun,
I'm walking up with my poem,
I know that I will show 'em,

I can be just as good,
When I crawl out of my hood,
When I get over my stage fright,
I could be perfect every night.

Write about something important to you.

[justdancer]

A little girl who laughs and plays,
Who bothers me every single day,
I couldn't live without her,
No matter how much she is a bother.

Every day she makes me cry,
Every day she makes me sing a lulluby,
She's a little girl, just my sister,
Yet I couldn't live without her.

Write about an object that is at least five feet near you.

[GypsyWolf]

The Computer is near and far,
You Find Things Good and Bad,
We all Have Fun and Enjoy the Computer,

But there Are always dangers,
Larking about Waiting to Kill,
Anything and Everything on,
Ones Every Own Computer.

Write about a Pet you have Lost dear to your heart.

[puppiesrock8]

Tiki was the greatest bird,
he was the leader of the herd,
he didn't know how to say a word,
Soon he died and we almost got a third.


Write a prompt about frogs who like to jump

[CheetahCat]

Lilypads, Lilypads, floating on pond.
The frogs jump up and croak their song.
Hop up,
Hop down.
Jumping all around.
Frogs leap,
In the keep.
Green, red,
spotty, dotty,
Abeoth frogs jump all around,
laying eggs that are round.
