Poetry and Rhymes

[geordiecolin]

I stumbled across this from a few years ago on my timeline. I am no poet but I enjoy reading poetry. In fact I think this is one of only a hand full of attempts that I have made. Feel free to add your own or your fave. Please name the Author.

Forgive this one ...

Laura.

Once pigtails and stuffed animals
Daddy's little girl.
Now cell phones and first boyfriends
my minds in such a whirl.
my daughters grown up
turning 18 today.
So strong and so beautiful
trying to find your own way.
Life is just beginning
the world is yours to take.
I hope we've taught you well
and you've learned from our mistakes.
We've loved you and protected you
now it's time to let you fly.
Though a woman stands before us
forever Daddy's girl in my eyes!

Yep! I relate to that one, I might just borrow that for a few years' time when I will have the same situation!

Off tinternet, beautiful & poignant:

"Roses are red

Violets are blue

Porn hub is down

Your mum's facebook will do"

There was a young woman from Cordoba,
who built an erotic pagoda
Of which the walls of the halls
were festooned with the tools of the fools who bestrode her.

I think that I was slightly tired and emotional when I wrote that. Now they are grown up they refuse to recognize how "difficult" they could be sometimes
