Default is a week ending on Saturday.

A Kinder Garden for the Mind

Listen here as I tell you, Son
About the time when school was fun:
The day was filled with fun and play
And that was what we did all day.

We made our friends, we got along.
No one ever was really wrong
And if we'd ever have a fight,
In the end we'd make it all right.

They'd hang our art upon the wall,
The good and bad, but best of all,
They'd hand out snacks to eat in class.
Then we'd go out, play on the grass.

They're the best days there are, Son.
Such days were filled with play and fun
'fore the days they make you smarten.
You'll have fun in Kindergarten.

adrecka that is awesome.
anyway

classroom
by lytnin

sit straight
look sharp
tuck in your shirt
pull your tie up
get rid of that chewing gum
the same commands babbling on and on
the teacher speaks but the words dont come out
she stands
looking through those beady eyes
and small mean glasses.
look up
watch
clock
watch the clock
tick tock
nearly there.
sunlight taps on the window
trying to reach the musty room
no, were sealed off
goodbye world
only 15 more minutes.
come on
tick tock.
when will it end.

yeh its not supposed to rhyme or even make sense hardlys, i wanted to make it represent how in school you get so bored you kinda lose your trail of thought.. lol... i think adrecka won though :O

Its time I wrote up a poem here. Heh, keep in mind though that I'm not so great with the "fun" poems. Mine tend to be more serious. I really hate rhyming poems, and for a topic like this, its hard to be serious...Blagh :(

What a prison I see.
The crime committed was turning 3.

I have learned to add and subtract,

What authority do you have over me?

No threat will be used against me. My life is not of
your control.
Why must you make me read?
English is just not me.
I am here to learn, not to feel guilt of refusing the unnecessary.

I refuse to worship such evil.
Let me rot in a hell hole if thats what it takes,
just don't put me with the devil's advocates.

Oh well, I tried.
I'll just have to wait for next week's topic. :)

gman1000, your poem is good, but it doesn't have a real feel to it. Things just seem to pop up everywhere, I like poems where it always follows a single beat, know what I mean?

I'm not saying I didn't like yours, it's better then anything I could have done.
