It was nearly midnight and , being tired and emotional, I lost concentration!

Wasn't having a go mate! You were just missing one line


Ish

My veggie garden is in full flow
Home grown produce springs from the soil
To feed the belly, real food to go
My veggie garden is in full flow
Pesticides? Herbicides? Absolutely no!
Time to enjoy the fruits of my toil
My veggie garden is in full flow
Home grown produce springs from the soil

Do you know the Muffin Man?
Four lined up every morning.
Chocolate chip, tiny, the plan is the plan.
Do you know the Muffin Man?
Reset breaks after one night-span,
shrieks and stomping, surely a warning.
Do you know the Muffin Man?
Four lined up every morning.

(What makes me happy? Boobs!)

Boobs are incredibly hot
It's important to check for lumps
My mammogram appointment, I almost forgot!
Boobs are incredibly hot
Being pressed tight on glass is not
I wish it was easier to find the bumps
Boobs are incredibly hot
It's important to check for lumps

Good food could be my greatest pleasure
Something simple or gourmet can be great
Try something easy to fix so you don’t have to measure
Good food could be my greatest pleasure
Someone to cook for you is the real treasure
A smart girl picks a chef for a mate
Good food could be my greatest pleasure
Something simple or gourmet can be great

Her sweet face brightens my day,
Her bright eyes never lie.
She makes my worries melt away.
Her sweet face brightens my day.
With such a loving spirit and joyful way,
She fills my heart with her gentle sigh.
Her sweet face brightens my day,
Her bright eyes never lie.

Her bright eyes never lie.

Puppers?

Puppers?

Yuppers!

Fuck, that was hard. Ok, this is my first try. Kinda sucks, but cute in weird way.


watching the sunrise
gives me the most happiness
it brings light into the world without a prize
watching the sunrise
is its own special paradise
without it all i fell is emptiness
watching the sunrise
gives me the most happiness

Doesn't suck at all!

And we all started somewhere. I don't think any of us had written a triolet before...

This was a hard structure. I had never heard of it before. I won't lie, I mapped out my A and B lines in Excel.

I like your poem.

I'm still writing mine in my notes app with the structure at the top of the page so I can keep checking against it

I think you're all doing amazing stuff!

That moment of grasping something I never knew,
Some new fact, a skill, some way the world works,
Trying that move again, still haven’t a clue
That moment of grasping something I never knew,
Never happier than when discovering a new thing to do
As knowledge grows, so too knowledge of the ignorance that lurks,
That moment of grasping something I never knew,
Some new fact, a skill, some way the world works

I went to watch Hothouse Flowers last week, a band I'd loved since my teens but I'd never seen them before.

The first song of theirs I heard was 'Don't Go', a song that I thought was a love song. It is, but not in the way I thought.

So this poem is a collaborative effort. They just don't know it...


Don't Go

There's a smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses
And the sun is shining down on the blossoms in the avenue
When I learned the meaning of this song it broke down my defences
There's a smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses
It cheers my soul, and lifts me from the moment it commences
When it plays my heart still smiles, but I hear the words anew
There's a smell of fresh cut grass and it's filling up my senses
And the sun is shining down on the blossoms in the avenue

Hopefully I have understood the instructions about the structure but it is something that makes me happy

There is nothing like a dick pic
To get my juices flowing
Long or short, thin or thick
There is nothing like a dick pic
To make me want to flick
And get my cheeks glowing
There is nothing like a dick pic
To get my juices flowing

Good work Debbie

I use a camera to hide my face
Safely shielded behind the glass
As if to spy on the human race
I use a camera to hide my face
To keep from feeling out of place
To blend in with this whole farce
I use a camera to hide my face
Safely shielded behind the glass

Yeah. You got it


The structure, not the pic

I had to read that in southerner

What is this strange background picture on the certificate you sent me for getting it right? And why are some of the words smudged?

Piled on the couch, one on each side,
snuggled in close, faces aglow.
Off on a movie-time joyride.
Piled on the couch, one on each side.
Her pick or his—I let them decide.
With popcorn, candy, a little cookie dough.
Piled on the couch, one on each side,
snuggled in close, faces aglow.
