Bounce, bounce, bounce, goes my leg under the desk.
Bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce, bounce.
This is a ridiculously short piece describing a distracted individual in class.
All through the purple grass the toads sung a merry tune.
For this night alone, my enemies were to be hewn.
So through the starry night, for you I could swoon.
All of this by the light of the deep orange moon.

It was in the purple fields that we tangoed through the night.
The poison clawed mice never giving up the fight.
They danced along my spine until the morning light.
Their blood red eyes bearing witness to my sacrificial rite.

Even though you left me in the fields where we romanced,
Even with the enemies with which I have danced,
That look in your eyes will always have me entranced.
For you, their attack I had willingly chanced.

But now here I stand, bleeding and without you.
For with my own sword they have run me through.
Don't be sad, I fear my end is overdue.
But hear my final words, and follow them through.

Over the blue mountains and across the yellow sea,
In the purple fields, below the purple tree.
When my bones rest here, my soul shall be free.
Go on to love another, as much as you once loved me.
I don't even know what to say about this poem. Some of it is a metaphor for physical pain I've experienced, while other bits are an exploration of my feelings involving a particular relationship. Some of it is just completely random.
The doves in flight,
Catch the morning light.
Dancing, dancing in the sky.

Little do people realize,
That they're fighting for their lives.
Dancing, to the rhythm of my sigh.
This poem was inspired from my observations of the relationship between my friend and her boyfriend.
If ever there were anything more beautiful than thee,
Something far more beautiful than I could hope to be,
Then I should wish that it, I never happen to see.
For if I did, I fear I’d lose all of my love for thee.

And should this object of beauty ever enter my sight,
Then in shining armour would descend my knight,
With his bright blue eyes and mighty height,
To rescue me from this horrendous plight.

By his sword the mighty dragon would be slain,
Never more could it inflict such awful pain,
And with his hand I shall regain my reign,
By his side my strength will never wane.
This poem came about as a continuation of the first line. However, in the context of this poem, the first line carries a different meaning than was originally intended.
I'm as blue as your eyes.

Your eyes are as blue as the sky,
But the sky isn’t nearly as beautiful.

Your eyes are as blue as the sea,
But the sea isn’t nearly as deep.

Your eyes are as blue as a sapphire,
But a sapphire isn’t nearly as precious.

Your eyes are as blue as a robin’s egg,
But an egg isn’t nearly as pure.

Your eyes are as blue as the Blue Morpho,
But that butterfly isn’t nearly as rare.

Your eyes are as blue as a police box,
But a police box doesn’t feel nearly as safe.

Your eyes are as blue as light with a wavelength of 465 nm,
But that light isn’t nearly as bright.

Your eyes are as blue as a horseshoe crab’s blood,
But that blood isn’t nearly as life-giving.

I'm as blue as your eyes.
This a very quirky poem about unrequited love. It was inspired an individual in particular, though there is a bit of exaggeration. Take for example, the fact that his eyes are more of a steel blue than the shade of blue described in the poem.
