Been in a weird mood recently and started writing poems again... So much for the badass biker look!

Sure most of you will scoff and never look here again but, if not, opinions are welcome, it may help me sort out my head xD
However never fear I will still be here tomorrow!
Its not all misery any depression, some is quite fun! I enjoy writing it regardless so heyho!
I too have had a dabble
with a word or two of verse,
one or two are not that bad
but most of them are worse.
I tend to keep it to myself
as it’s seen as a bit gay,
but now and then I have the urge
to have a little play.
I’ve written down some soppy ones
when love was in the air,
but most are fairly private
that I couldn’t really share.
Some of them are funny
and a few of them are sad,
but most of them are stupid
and just verge on being mad.
I would say, get writing,
and unlock the “you” inside,
publish them upon this site
then be prepared to hide !

I really like doing them if they turn out OK and make people laugh (or cry Tina) ;) but find they are really frustrating when I want to use a word and can't find a rhyme.
I like other peoples non rhyming verses (some) but can't get into writing the myself.
I'm proudest of my 2011 Chrsitmas Poem to the males in my family that I bought something for (I do a poem for the females & another for the blokes at Xmas).
I'll dig it out, may make you laugh !
Keep it up mate [smiley=thumbup.gif]
If you have a talent/gift then I believe you should use it to its full advantage
Gerry, the poem you wrote (quite a while ago now) was absolutely brilliant and I was so honoured that you took time out to make me smile (and cry hehe).......it costs very little to share a few well organised words but the affect it can have on another is amazing
So many people don't share their talent for fear of being ridiculed by others.............my advice is, stuff 'em.....they are just jealous 'cos they can't do it !!
Good on all those budding poets, artists, etc etc.....no matter what gift you have, you have been given it, so use it to it's full potential......wasting it would be a real shame.
My Christmas Poem (2011)
To the Blokes
The ****in shops are full again
with ****in kids and ****in men
and ****in women, oversized,
with ****in murder the their eyes.
You ****in fight to ****in buy
the ****in stuff, it makes you cry
you ****in wished you shopped online
it’s ****in such a ****in crime.
The ****in sales are ****in on
the ****in cheap stuffs ****in gone
with ****in tempers running high
some ****in ****ers gunna die.
You’re ****in nearly ****in done
this ****in should be ****in fun
I’m ****in buying Christmas wrap
it’s ****in all such ****in crap.
Next ****in year, you ****in wait
my ****in shopping will be great
I’ll ****in do it on the Net
and ****in save the ****in sweat.
So ****in like your ****in stuff
and if you don’t it’s ****in tough
it’s ****in what you’ve got this year
it’s ****in sent with Christmas cheer.
Penned after a few hours in Bath Christmas shopping.
Yes, I know I’m an old soppy socks ;D

Go for it G3o. I often dabble in a bit of poetry - Not me, love it though.
"The moving finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all the piety nor wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line
Nor all the tears wash out a word of it."
The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (1859)
Dosen't need to rhyme.
When I lived in a Highland village, a self- appointed clique formed a group, supposedly to represent the local parish. The unelected committee decided to hold a Robbie Burns night to celebrate the formation of the group. The local councillor and other so called dignitaries were invited, but no ordinary residents from our village.
Robbie Burns is my favourite poet so in true Robbie speak:
Robbie’s venture at the Milltown Supper
Welcome everyone and all
We’re gathered tonight to hae us a ball
I’m nae standin’ to gi’e ye a lecture
Sae down a wee dram O’ the golden nectar
This is HQ, the clan gath’rin place
Indulge the great chieftain O’ the pudding race
Mae hae a joyful night, we’re all Spartan
Sae don yer tammies, straight’n yer tartan
The Torbolton lasses are here to play
Jiggy wi jive the Highland fling way
Bessy on sqeeze box, Peggie on doodlesac pipe
Sae ceilidh awa to The Robbie Burns hype
And ye the bard ye great poet man
Ye canna stay yer nae frae our clan
Ye ken community spirit yer all a yearning
But this here clique is nae frae turnin
Needless to say the guests who attended weren’t best pleased but most of the villagers loved it.
Really enjoyed the dark ones.
And Ged, you just made me laugh myself on to the floor!
