PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i WAS LISTENING TO WILD MERCY ABOUT MYSTICS AND THEY SAID PERIWINKLE AND THAT WAS A WORD i DON'T OFTEN HEAR AND IT STUCK IN MY HEAD AND THEN POLKA DOTS CAME TO JOIN IT...HA HA...COULD BE A PIECE OF ABSTRACT ART WORK THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO SEE... IT COULD BE POLKA DOTS OF PERIWINKLE FLOWERS OR THE COLOR PERIWINKLE WHATEVER YOU HAPPEN TO SEE OR PREFER I SUPPOSE...I THINK THE FLOWERS  WOULD MAKE A MORE INTERESTING  PICTURE...I CAN SEE THAT MASTERPIECE IN MY MIND...LET YOUR IMAGINATION GO WHEREVER IT WANTS WITH THIS...THE CROWDS COULD BE IN THE PICTURE LOOKING UP AT THE PHENOMENON OR IT COULD BE JUST THE PHENOMENON ITSELF THAT ACTUAL CROWDS ARE DRAWN TO SEE LOOKING UP IN THE SKY...YOU GET THE IDEA...IMAGINE LOOKING IN THE SKY AND SEEING SUCH A SIGHT OR AN ABSTRACT MASTERPIECE BRINGING YOU DELIGHT......THIS WAS ORIGINALLY ONE STANZA BUT I ADDED THE LAST PART OF  MY COMMENT ABOUT IT AS A SECOND VERSE CUZ IT SEEMED TO WORK.

WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU HEARD THAT WORD PENNYWHISTLE...CAN YOU EVEN GET A WHISTLE FOR A PENNY ANYMORE...HIGHLY DOUBT IT...I LIKED THE PLAY ON WORDS PENNY WHISTLES PENNYWHISTLES...SIMPLER TIMES...SIMPLE RHYMES...FUN PLAYING WITH WORDS... A PENNY WHISTLE IS A TIN WHISTLE AND IT MADE ME REMEMBER SOMETHING STYMIE ON THE LITTLE RASCALS RECITED ONCE...I BOUGHT A WOODEN WHISTLE BUT IT WOODEN WHISTLE...I BOUGHT A  STEEL WHISTLE  BUT IT STEEL WOODEN WHISTLE...I BOUGHT A TIN WGOHISTLE AND NOW i TIN WHISTLE...AMUSES ME AND I HEARD THAT AGES AGO ...LOVE THE LITTLE RASCALS...SIMPLER TIMES...PENNYWHISTLE JUST POPPED INTO MY HEAD...

WATCHING THE PROPOSAL WONDERING WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN NEXT AND HAD TO PAUSE IT TO WRITE THIS POEM THAT JUST CAME ALONG...

I HAVEN'T CHEWED GUM IN AWHILE BUT CAN VIVIDLY REMEMBER A TIME WHEN I WAS A KID RUNNING AROUND PUSHING A PLAYGROUND MERRY GO ROUND WITH GUM IN MY MOUTH AND YELLING SOMETHING SO THE PEOPLE ON IT COULD HEAR AND HAVING MY GUM FLY OUT OF MY MOUTH DIRECTLY INTO MY HAIR SOMEHOW...YUCK...I WOULD RUN REALLY FAST AND SPIN THE THING AND THEN JUMP ON AND GET A RIDE TOO BUT THE GUM IN THE HAIR PART WAS JUST PLAIN YUCKY AND THERE WAS NO OTHER WAY TO GET IT OUT BUT TO CUT IT OUT...SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOTTA CUT IT OUT...CUT IT OUT ALREADY...HA HA...THE LESS PAINFUL WAY TO GET RID OF KNOTS IN YOUR HAIR IS TO CUT THEM OUT TOO INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BRUSH THEM OUT OR PULL THEM APART...THE JOYS OR ANNOYANCES OF WAVY HAIR...

THE LAST FOUR LINES CAME AS AN AFTER THOUGHT WHEN I WAS COPY AND PASTING MY POEM OVER HERE...

BELIEVING IN DREAMS IS AMAZING AND MAGICAL. SILENCE LIMITING BELIEFS. LISTEN TO YOUR HEART. KEEP DREAMING AND BELIEVING.

THERE WAS A TIME I ACCEPTED ALL FRIEND REQUESTS ON FACEBOOK. THOSE DAYS ARE OVER. TOO MUCH HACKING GOING ON...TOO MANY IMPOSTERS PRETENDING TO BE SOMEONE ELSE...I RARELY ACCEPT FRIEND REQUESTS ANYMORE...TOO BAD...I WAS ALWAYS FRIENDLY WITH EVERYONE...ALWAYS APPROACHABLE...THE TYPE OF PERSON PEOPLE STOP TO ASK FOR DIRECTIONS ON THE STREET...IF I DO OCCASIONALLY TAKE A CHANCE AND THEY SEEM WEIRD TO ME IN ANY WAY OR I GET A STRANGE VIBE I TRUST MY INTUITION AND HAVE NO PROBLEM SIMPLY UNFRIENDING NO EXPLANATION AND BLOCKING ON TOP OF THAT...CRAZY TIMES WE LIVE IN...CEST LA VIE

PRETTY SURE LOTS CAN RELATE TO THIS

THIS WAS COMPLETE THEN I ADDED THE LAST THREE LINES THAT WERE GONNA BE MY COMMENTS HERE...
