THE POETRY CONTEST

You’ve been chosen and it’s your lucky day!
You’ve won our latest contest hooray!
You are now among the best of the best
And, here’s how you can out shine the rest
We’ve chosen your poem to go into
A book we’ve created for you
It will have your poem in a nice place
If you send a pic, we’ll show your face!
The book is made of the finest leather
But, still remains light as a feather
You can show your friends and brag about it
You won a contest no doubt about it
Wanna know when you’ll get your poem book?
Bet you’re excited to take a look
Just mail us 60 bucks and we’ll send it
It’s a pretty good scam.. it’n it?

FRACTURED VALENTINE WISH

Valentine! Oh! Valentine!
I’ve loved you from afar!
Valentine! Oh! Valentine!
I don’t know who you .. is!
Maybe if we got closer
I’m tawkin’ face to face
I could love you from a near
With satin and .. denim!
Valentine! Oh! Valentine!
Do you even know mah name?
Valentine! Oh Valentine!
This is such a damn.. waste
Let’s meet on Wednesday evenin’
I’ll wear somethin’ bright red
You better sho’ up buster
Or, wish that you wuz .. gone!
Valentine! Oh! Valentine!

I write in words of sweet love
’Tis a romantic yarn
See ya on Valentine’s Day
Behind farmer Brown’s … house!

SPRING IN FEBRUARY

You embarrass me sweet bird of spring!
I have no right to see you!
There’s feet of snow in the northern states
They don’t know what to do!
But, there you sit outside my window
Singing away the chill
While I sit here smiling and thinking
Of Punxsutawney Phil!
Looks like you two know all about it
You hardly need a map
You’re telling those of us in the south
We’ve seen our last cold snap!
It’s February and time for spring?
I’ll take you for your word
For me to argue with you and Phil
Would be very absurd!
Sing on sweet robin out my window
I’m drinking it all in
Wishing everyone could feel the warmth
You share with me my friend!
