Hi Lori,

So you hide in this corner to write youthful poems.

My favourite  is Little girl Green.

Wrote a Work of Stories  

Wrote a work of stories,
a novel filled with pride;
Four and fifty pages
pressed in its hide!

When the book was opened
the tales were read this way;
Was not that a skillful tale
to learn and then to say?

The author picked a myth of old
to bring to life once more;
The audience was reading
fairy fables sent from yore.

The crits were often given,
careful of the grade;
echoing the masters,
whence fairy tales were made.

Danny Dealer

Danny Dealer dealt a deck
of deadbeat dreamers;
A deck of deadbeat dreamers
Danny Dealer dealt;
If Danny Dealer dealt a deck
of deadbeat dreamers,
where’s the deck of deadbeat
dreamers Danny Dealer dealt?

Little Girl Green  

Little Girl Green
come plant your bloom
the sun is shining bright,
the dirt’s in its tomb;

Where is the girl
who tends flowers and turf?
She’s picking out weeds,
ground in earth.

Fill the seedlings
in their place,
watch the flowers,
spring up with grace.

I'm trying to decide which of these I like best!!  I was going to say the third one, as I've been gardening today  but I really like the first one, and I'm still trying to get my tongue around Danny Dealer!!  What a clever tongue twister!!

These are all brilliant, and I think the first one is my favourite, especially the last stanza.  The rhyming and structures are so clever

I've really enjoyed these:)

Still the queen of bedtime stories and fairy tales. Loved Danny Decker's Deck of mischief. Great show, Lori   Elaine

Why thank you Alan!

I always find it a fun challenge to 'mimic' other's works. It's a good learning technique too!

Thanks for stopping by!  :farmer:
