Here's a little exercise for the brain. A brain game, if you will.
The rules are:
1. One person gives a topic to write about
2. The next person responds with a quick little poem
3. Then the person who posted the poem submits a new topic for someone else to write about.
And so on...
For instance:
Topic: Love
She was beautiful
I couldn't help but sing
The days passed full
So I gave her my ring....
And then I would give a new topic.
Got it?
First Topic: Childhood Memories
Great idea, individual. I will try to post here from time to time.
So long ago when I was born
leaves were falling upon the ground
the month was ten, the day was four
And here I am forevermore
Topic: Trees
I sit, listen, and sway
I swing and dance all day
So come on, won't you play?
Be like the blue or the jay.
I'll give you shade
I'll give you breeze
Just be careful what you do
And watch out for my bees!
Topic: What you wear on your birthday
What you wear on your birthday
"I put on a dress, just to feel like a lady
And leave off my jeans that are so worn and faded."
The Winter's snow
bookmarking--stunning idea...what do I wear on my birthday? My birthday suit, of course.
Back later
That was what I was hoping you would say.
A frigid fire upon my nose
A burning ice upon my toes
My heart is frozen as well as my soul
God help me, my tongue's stuck to this pole.
Topic: A Sucker is Born Every Minute
We definitely need to recruit people to keep this going
Every minute a sucker is born
A mind easy to mold,
Influence, and conform.
But without suckers no busines could thrive
No phony ad promos
could help it survive
So to the suckers we give thanks;
they make the world run sound
You're the ass of our pranks
So we still want you around.
subject- blinding darkness
Good poem...
Welcome to A2K, Diablo.
Blinding darkness,
Juxtaposed against the deep
and dark black rose.
Steaming smoke
And fire glows,
Flambeau dies
The river flows
Into the endless grotto.
Dreaming.............
Is dreaming the next subject or part of your poem?
The next subject, individual...
Dreaming of a starry night
sparkling up above
or of clear and sunny day
floating with the dove
Sleeping just to dream
quiet moments in the air
life is just a dream sometimes
but something you can't share
How about chocolate?
choc'late
in my pocket
all on a summer day
i mourn the loss
i had to toss
the choc'late quite away
new topic: seascape
Is it possible to paint the sea
With words that capture majesty?
It changes every hour and day,
First power, then calm, then quietly
It roars to life on shortened chain,
Daring the moon to play the game.
next topic: Wind
She comes and she goes
Whether anyone believes
Like fingers in my hair
Like she's living in the leaves
She's an ocean in the air
Flowing up, out, and in
Try to catch her if you dare
But you can never win
Topic: Greed
They take and take and cannot give
greed envelopes them in time
not giving back to those in need
should be punished for a crime
Within the covet of their desire
a hoard of unthoughtful lies
the greatest sin within is done
while love is not required
Topic Clouds
