I foresay, this short abstract bit
won't be the world's greatest hit.
Poets from very far and very near
I say it now to make it clear
even tho' this ain't no welp
there is this guy who might need help.
So please go there, dare to leave a line
and make this piece more lyrically fine.


-----

Poets of any age, style and meter, let me call for some June fun extravaganza and help make Manu's quite plain testing purpose publication a place of pretty poetry. Please, please pour all your rhymes or free form into its comments and let's make sure our voices are heard that poetry is still alive on Literotica.

Thank you all in advance.
 
just in case the original work will be removed for testing purposes:

"This, my friend, was just a test,"
a soul was told when laid to rest
in some holy ground near Bucharest
"Please tell me, what did you like best?"
It took a day to think, but at last, the soul confessed
'It wasn't when I was pretty dressed,
or felt a shiny knight on quest.
It was the fatal night I had a guest.
She knocked and told she traveled west
right down the river to join a poets fest'
after dinner and some, tucked tightly in her nest
the lines she whispered from the depths of her chest
in rhymes and meter perfect, the story full of zest,
that, my Lord, that was my life's very best.'
Seeing the mighty eyebrow raised to its crest,
the soul starts fading, leaving its last manifest,
'Sire, excuse me please, I'm already fully blessed.'
 
It speaks of human nature. The test has more reads than nearly all the other published the same day! Because it says "do not read"!
 
Not everyone is blessed, it's true,
to be a techie like Manu.
He didn't even try to write
(and might regret it in hindsight)
a poem or descriptive prose
that might engage or excite those
who prowl these pornographic halls.
A few might say he lacks the balls,
rumouur has it he's quite well-hung
and just may lack a poet's tongue.
 
Not sure how many lines;
that's fine, but
just wanted to leave a sign.
mulligan, go again.
So, I guess that is all to say,
except, welcome Joshua; hi you lot. :)
 
I don't know what I'm doing
I never really do
Where are we really going?
What's this leading to
I could find a rhyme
and put it in its place
but I can't find the time
to look life in the face
It's because I'm really scared
it's because of all I lack
it's because I never dared
to ever leave the track
But maybe if I read
maybe if I write
I could grow a seed
And even see the light
 
Poems that rhyme:
R Not a Crime!?
Even tho' avant garde:
Says blank verse is all the Modern rage...
To be popular
Or circular:
'Tis Not Square
Peace : propaganda please doth Not blare.....
Sigh....whimper....sob:
My two bits---from Bob!!!
