By Maureen Lynas I had this really great idea, That I would blog in verse on here. To celebrate this special day, With similes I'd have my say. And metaphors, they would abound. I'd entertain you with the sound, Of rhythm, metre, and some rhyme But then I thought, That will take time. So, I'm not. Instead I'm going to celebrate NationalPoetry Day by announcing a brand new poetry

Yay for Poetry Day! I love rhyming verse and it sometimes sneaks into my stories too.
Kid Pie! Ha! My eldest will find your poem very amusing! <br /><br />Thanks for helping us all celebrate National Poetry Day, Maureen!
Fab! Thanks for sharing! I wish i could do poetry but my command of English is sadly lacking!
I cannot believe yet<br />that no one has tried <br />a rhyming response<br />to the blog on this site.<br />If I start the ball rolling<br />whoever posts next<br />will have to continue<br />or I shall become vexed :)<br />
Goodness me Julienne,<br />A marvellous waste of time!<br />I'm supposed to be working,<br />Not commenting in rhyme!<br />(and yet - irresitible...)
Feel free to post in rhyme or prose<br />This is the slushpile, anything goes!
I'll reply properly later but please can I nominate our school?
Oh woe is me<br />I missed our date<br />I was attacked by germs, <br />They got me by the throat <br />And squeezed<br />And now I'm wracked with <br />Erms.<br />What to post, what to post erm...erm...see? It's tragic really. Great post Captain Maureen x<br />
Yay! of course you can. We have a school lined up for November and then George has a couple ready so you would be after that, Excellent, thanks!
