This is a bit of a forum game, but at the same time it has the capacity to result in a bit of poetry, so it goes here. I'm going to supply a line of poetry, and the following poster is to create a poem using the line I gave as their first. Along with their poem, they supply a line for the next person to write poetry on. No restrictions on the type of line or poetry; just keep the line open ended.

Here's the first line:

A mountain pokes out awkward in the mist

Joey's:
I wake to the sunlight
of this glorious day
Dawn's beauty breaking
through the clouds
I feel happiness.

Moon's:

HEY SHAMALAMA DING DONG
THIS PHRASE SOUNDS SO WRONG
Someone must have bought a new bong...

Are you sure?

Ninja'd. a very late ninja.... hmm hopefully i will not be ninja'd as i try to fix the ninja'd-ed.

I wake to the sunlight,
To find you beside me.
Nothing is more beautiful than you,
Because you are all I see.
I want to be there as you awaken.
I want to help you calm down when you feel shaken.

I will always be here
To hold your hand
To wipe your tears
To dance with you
To hold you near
To sing with you
To get rid of your fears.

I love you.
With every cell in me.
I know you do too.
You have my heart and the key.



Never written it from a guys POV. kewl.
I so know that i have been ninja'd BUT OH FRIGGIN WELL.

Are you sure?
that the sky is blue
Are you sure?
that penguins never flew

Are you sure?
that space is endless
Are you sure?
that is not yor mess

Are you sure?
that we are not specks of dust
Are you sure?
that we must

Are you sure?

How do I get out of here?
This nightmare, it controls me.
There is but one way out,
But that requires more than I am able.

The way is shut,
The drums are sounding,
My time draws near,
My heart is pounding.

As I see his face
Terror grips me
My worst enemy is:
Myself.

Random, yet not...

Help us escape
Cardboard prisons
We've grown too big
Please help, children

I did not know your name when we first met

I did not know your name when we first met
But when I ask you would always threat
That you would cut my head off so that
It can shut up and wear no bad hat

Help us escape
Your life is already Forfeit
You death already certain
to be horrible.

The sharks are hunting
But one catch
Will be
enough


But We
Our future obscure,
Doom questionable.
A singular fool cannot
Compare to an eternal pool

The hawkes will gladly
Take just one
And leave
Us

We are endless
But trapped
Our children, not yet born
Trapped with us
Your everything ends
with you

The Wolves are hungry
You can satisfy
Their need
Easily

Help us escape

That got a little dark...
!@#$%^ I got ninja'd.

Well here's a short poem so that my new line will still count.

I did not know your name when we first met
But you knew mine
You showed up at my door
And served me a subpoena
What are you doing later?

A Leafless Branch

A leafless branch.
Pity.
Cold wind ripped you.
Oh cruel.
It sheds your cloak
Relentless.
Of golden greens and red.
Monster.
Where will you hide?
Child.
Until spring comes.

Next: Amid the wonders and tears I smile.

Amid the wonders and tears I smile
Sweet I yuck and bitter are mine
GOOD is bad while BAD is good
And happy is sad while sad is jolly!

Old Macdoneld(to prevent copyright issues) had a sl*t

Sl*t? I don't know what word you were trying to write, so I'll assume you meant "slot".

Old Macdonel had a slot
In which he hid his lot
But instead of beer, pipes and bowls
Old Macdoneld hid bones, hands, and skulls

Every night he would go to the city
And dance around, meet someone pretty
He would ask her to come to his place
Where he would then cut of her face

With each new sucessful kill
Over the years this slot did fill
Till one day the smell overflowed
Carried all the way down the road

Where sherrif Johnson could easily smell
The work of that farmer from hell
So instead of going to the city that night
Old Macdoneld was hung from a height

Hey, it had a happy ending. I guess.

It was the happiest time of his life
when he could walk
when his dreams were pure
then
now
he has to suffer
now the dreams are haunted
he can not walk
it was the worst time of his life

[b]As the sun sets it is a picture perfect moment[b]
