The challenge
     (Free Verse )
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Praise be to God , we have eyes to see beyond
Befitting the wit of Mankind ever strong.
For years four-hundred maybe five
The Poets made the words to come alive.
Challenging proved me right n seldom wrong

The first rhymes I made way back at school
My fairest weather friends thought me a fool
A waste of useful time the taunted cry
Have they much better things always to do?
And to there fine X-Boxes could be glued.

A fine poet we know as Melan
Has a genius second to none

Spaghetti bologna every night
He cooks for his self
As part of his wealth
Will now do so the rest of his life.

Rhetoric.
An Acrostic verse.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rhetoric is the art of polish and refinement
Harlot verbiage moving from context -context
Every now and then causing misjudgement
Tenses abound within rhetorical speakers
Orator, when will you ever learn?
Rhetoric Embarras many words inappropriate
Inappropriately in discrete as testified secrets
Clearly dismissing rhetoric to a state of limbo.

The nurse wheeled her trolly passed my bed.
Thought I was peaceful , thought I was dead
But looks can deceive
And I’m in reprieve.
Comforted by , a good life ahead.

I can see many poets on line.
           A Limerick
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can see many poets on line.
Their attitude is hard to define.
Minority’s rude.
And I’m not a *****
It’s not so hard to be polite?

There was a young boy of Kawana
              A Limerick
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There was a young boy of Kawana
Who would always be eating bananas
For breakfast and lunch
For dinner or brunch.
His life was full of such drama.
