my poetry, my good sir, is quite profound, yours however, is the best around. your musical talent, I shan't protest. I'd rather read your rhymes: the best!
The art of poetry, my friend, Is great by all when penned. You flatter me quite so, But all deserve to know, That I pray for many rhymes, Of all strange shapes and size. This contest is outstanding, And not at all demanding.
Oh no! Don't cry! Ummm.....ahem.... It's alright now little guy, There really is no need to cry. Happy daydreams, all of these, Laugh instead if you so please. Holidays are great, and full of fun, So get out there and go find some!
This poem is one of the two entered into the contest so far that I really like, with "A Flawless Starbound Christmas" being my pick for clear winner in its category. I've no skill at poetry, so I'm probably not qualified in any way to pass judgement, but it seems like it was effortless for you to work the rhyming scheme without it seeming forced at all. Kudos, man. I did have a good laugh when I saw what Santa had brought. Regular war-hound is our old St. Nick. Anywho, yeah, awesome job, Sham. It was a pleasure reading your work. Best of luck to you!
Thank you! Every poem, no matter how great or small, is a labor of love for me. I can assure you that this particular work took a fair bit of time, but every moment was well spent. I am very happy that you enjoyed it, and I hope everyone else does as well. Perhaps in the future you could try your hand at a poem! A cookie you proffer? What a delicious offer! You can rhyme as well, I can indeed, already tell. Take some time, think it out, See what your keen mind can sprout!
Yeah... I've tried poems. And been regularly shut down. And rightfully so! I'm more than content to just admire my betters in this respect.
Well, I've tried my hand at short stories and I can tell you now that a rabies-infested chipmunk could do better. I just don't have the knack for it, and so I stick to what I know as you do. I admire those that can write them, and never aspire to write my own.
Oh I think not. I may be a decent wordsmith, but that's about all I have. Maybe I will though, just to make yours look even better!
No worries chief. I have too much going on to focus on another entry anyway. If you ever need a poem, though, you know where to find me!
