I won't be judging this contest, but I will be judging any that I decide not to submit to :P

Yeah, do you think that you could change that last line to something a little more... PG?

Haha Ubertuna, our poems kind of relate to how water is life and death....copier XP

You can just delete the post. Not funny without the last line!

Can I enter?


Darkness and Love
--
my world is torn by darkness and love,
when will I see the dove?
My life, faith doth mock,
They throw me around like a tattered smock,
cupid why hast thou pierced me with thy arrow and bow?
Thou hast staggered me to and fro,
But love is burned by searing hate,
again, mock me, doth mine fate,
my world is torn by darkness and love,
when will I see the dove?

Will pirates work? they SAIL on WATER

^^^The poems have to be on the designated topic. This week's topic is "Water."

I LIKE PIRATES THEY ARE COOL
L IKE A GOD, THEY DON'T GO TO SCHOOL

K ICKING ASS IF YOUR RICH OR POOR

A LONG THE WATER THEY SAIL ALL DAY
T HE ONLY THING THAT STOPS THEM IS A SEXY LADEY
E VEN IF THIS ISN'T 100% RELATED TO WATER
S EXY PIRATES ROCK AND CAPS LOCK ROCKS.. ER!

Water

The water flows like the wind,
softly changing the earth.
It creates valleys and shortens mountains,
and is with us from our birth.

Water flows along with our dreams,
shaping our minds.
Ever following our every move,
It is the life-sources for all kinds.

Without it we would not exist,
our lives would just be dry.
Plants and trees would wither and die,
And we wouldn't be able to cry.

And so I end this watery poem,
With a note of thanks.
For every drop that has passed my lips,
Or filled the rivers banks.

Darn I can't find any water poems in my stash of useless junk.

I'll come back with a....

Question: Is it possible when can submit more than one? Like a few limericks maybe combined as one poem?

Water is a double edged sword,
So let me give this warning word.
In small amounts it will give life,
But it is as deadly as a knife.

So do not swim in oceans deep,
The price to pay is far too steep.
An assassin in disguise,
Deep water leads surely to demise.

@plokkey
you may only submit one final poem, but that poem can be structured however you'd like it to be, unless we have a week where people can only submit certain kinds of poems.

Very nice Uber! But I have to admit, I totally want to go in one of those submarines a mile down in the ocean...

This week's theme will be "Water."
