"Poems Thread"

It seems that from time to time people will post a poem but it is awkward to find somewhere to post it. Life or General seem to be the two forums people favour so I think it would be a good idea to have a thread just for submitting poems to so that people who are interested in reading poetry or submitting there own have a thread in which to do so instead of trawling through the backlogs of posts.


Feel free to submit anything of a poetical nature to this thread as well as comments on people's writing.

I composed these ages ago late night with Robin : hope you like them :]

there was once a boy who liked to spam
much more than he like to eat jam
he sat in a chair
with not much hair
and posted enless spam

spam
its also a ham
which is a food like jam
oh how i love spam

spamedy spamedy spam
oh i want some ham
im sitting in the study
with nobudy
spaming my little heart out.

there once was a man called sam
who liked very much to spam
he met up with robin
and they started bobbin
and we never saw them again

oh i do like to spam
it passes the hours
oh i do liek to spam
while i do it i grow flowers
oh i do like to spam spam spam

computer computer burning bright
how i look at you late at night
computer computer burning bright
if you shut down i'd get a fright

There was a young boy called robin
who really liked mary poppin'
he went home one day
to find his mum in dismay
for mary had ransacked the house

old mothe lawri
sat on the first story
eating butter and jam
when down came a robin
and sat on her bottin
and it never saw daylight again

Ba Ba balck robin ahve you any spam
Yes sir yes sir a chat room full
lots for snuggly
and some for bob
and a little bit for DW because he complains

Sorry for all the typos, didn't bother to check it.

Lol, cheers for the contribution Alec, was rather funny to read.

Here is something a little more serious I just composed, I call it "Thankful"


The darkness wrapped around my throat
Choking the life from me
A thousand eyes this twilight has
Each one unwilling to see
It’s life, I know, this inherent urge
To look after number one
Uncaring about our fellow man
So what if they’ve lost or won?
Carefully now I softly tread
Along the edge of a knife
And as I lay down in my bed
I’m still thankful for this life.

My mates said my poems were a bit depressive so I tried something a little more upbeat.


I witness your blonde locks blowing in the breeze
I hear your soft Siren’s call
You are my beautiful blue-eyed temptress
To whose knee’s I would gladly fall.
When I think it is only of you
When I close my eyes, you’re all I see
You’re an incomparable elegant goddess
And your love shall set me free.

Do people read anymore?

*dies*

Liked the depressing ones more. Then again I am a pessimist. No, people are just too damned lazy and pathetic to read and comment. Not all of them (in fact some are excellent at commenting), but a large number. I'm telling you, enter some of this stuff into competitions, its gold.

I dont know where to find a competition to enter my stuff into.

I was hoping Black Glove would contribute to this thread - his poems are excellent.

Thanks, i have won loadsa prizes fr my poems. However i stole them all from Alec...
