Hey, I've got an idea. Let's write Roses are Red poems right here on the blog. It'll be great. I'll write a few to get you started. Then you can contribute your own. Over the next week or so, you can check back to read the awesome ones other people write. How about we set the rules as every poem much contain either the word "roses" or "red" and must follow the standard Roses are Red rhyming/stress pattern.
Full disclosure: this is not a new idea. It's been done many times, some of which were right here on this blog! Check out posts from '13, '12, '11, '10, '09, '08, '07

Is it your love they desire Or your money instead? Or am I just a cynical old woman? ************************ on Thu 13th Feb, 2014 05:30 pm CST Dave said: Roses are red Flawless diamonds have a similar result A man's wallet is bled In the name of a marketing cult ************************ |
