The Community Spirit 24 Hour Poetry Competition

Ode to the Rules

 

Community Spirit

Can really get with it

By posting a ditty,

A poem or a limerick.

 

It doesn't need to rhyme

Or be more than two lines

It can be sad or funny

About sunshine or bunnies.

 

The one with most kudos wins

There will also be a "judge's pick"

The judge is me and there will be 

No dissent from thee or thee 😉 😉 😉

 

So, grab your pen and paper, too

Find inspiration from what's around you

Or go back to the past or into the future

Write on haute cuisine, or even haute couture 🙂

 

 

Here I sit blank of mind

Words to write I can not find

Inspiration won't come to me

Therefore a lousy poet I will be




Blessed are the cracked, for they are the ones who let in the light.

At first I thought what I needed to make my kitchen the best

Was something as humble as a spoonrest,

But as time went on my desires grew bolder

I yearned to own - a teabag holder!

 

Alas!  My gadget lust was far from sated…

Feverishly I flicked through catalogues with breath bated,

I jmade the discovery that to be truly bourgeois

I needed to possess a shiny chinois!!!

 

But not just any old chinois will do,

Something so common may be fine for you

But what I crave, nay, what I demand

Is a shiny chinois with a stand!!!!

With a poem, a lyric, a silly silly song 🙂
