OK, we only do these on rare occasions, but it's poetry time! Let's see who has a talent for writing a verse or two. If you want to take a few liberties with rhymes, we won't hold it against you. We've had some gems in the past when we've done this, so let's see how this one goes!

Please remember rule one, and keep it politics-free. Thanks!

  1. I like eggs.

    Give me eggs.

    I call this: “broccoli soup”

  2. I don’t like Jellyfish

    They’re not a fish, they’re a blob,

    they don’t have eyes, fins or scales like a cod.

    They float around blind, stinging people in the seas,

    And no one likes jellyfish with chips and mushy peas.

    Get rid of ‘em.

  3. **Kev’s Summer Poem**

    The trouble with the summer,
    Is the humid, sticky heat
    Which melts away my ice cream
    As it pools around my feet.

    That’s when all the flies come out
    And settle on my shirt
    Most are just annoying
    Though those horsefly bites do hurt.

    The gulls come down to steal my chips
    Right out of the packet
    They swoop on me with high pitched squawks,
    And make a dreadful racket.

    The tarmac melting on the road
    Makes travelling a pain
    And the one weekend you do go out
    It pisses down with rain.

    Then next door does a barbecue
    But before the food is plated,
    The whole damn thing goes up in flames
    And everything’s cremated.

    Those electric fans don’t do a thing,
    I wish I’d never bought ’em
    Another stuffy, sleepless night
    Makes me say “roll on autumn!”

  4. I am sick of this
    It is realy fucking hot
    When will it cool down?

  5. The first lines of Paradise Lost are the same meter as The Flintstones theme. It is now ruined, sorry.

    OF Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
    Of that Forbidden Tree…
