Red roses and candy
Is what she really wants Instead of this poem Written in funny fonts I'm posting this a little earlier than usual in hopes that it gives everyone a chance to get their entries in for the 3rd annual BdW Roses are Red Poetry Slam*. As always, your poem must: * be 4 lines long * follow the standard ABCB "Roses are red" rhyme/stress pattern * make reference to either "red" or "roses" For inspiration (or glorious, glorious diversion) check out entries from year 1 and year 2. Submit your entries via the comments portion of this post. Feel free to use a pseudonym if you'd rather not have people know it was your poem. Feel free to submit more than once. Feel free to cover any topic and be as creative as you like, as long as you follow the rules*. Now let the poems roll! |
