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

"Maple leafs are red,"
Is what the idiot said.
Lines like that
And poems like his
Make me wonder why he was bred.


There you go, Burd.

waiting for night to pass,
that night girl had some sass,
In the day light they have,
small chickens and cow calfs!

Your momma is here.

Your momma is here.
But you was waiting for your fere
Your momma wanted to talk to you
Yet all you did was to take care of your Gnu

Yet all you did was to take care of your Gnu

Busy,
What a gigantic city
no room for simplicity
just fighting from vicinity

Going through the blocked road

the unkept goal,
lost a few souls
Had a promise,
but it was broken,
the truth has been spoken.

the truth has been spoken
the past has been dismantled
a light for the awoken
bringing life to the annulled

Words of love and pain
Everything we most want
End up mostly in vain
Asking for repent

through these dark times
you can hear the chimes ,
Darkest of places
Light still paces,

Light In Dark

A cliff overlook'd the sea,
A family peered down and gazed at the wonders,
An eagle flew magnificient over head

It was now free, from its prison bed
