Notorious Poet

There once was a man who wrote poetry,
but his words caused bad notoriety.
Poems full of bad grammar,
Souper's thought he's a spammer!
But he was struggling with sobriety!

Valentine’s Day

Valentine's Day is a day for love
do you want to be my turtle dove
are you as sweet as candy
here is a glass of brandy
let's go out and watch the stars above

Words Unspoken

He held my hand, not one word was spoken

Then a ring he offered as a token

     He could not ask for marriage

     For fear I might disparage

His eyes conveyed sentiments unspoken

Rock, Paper and Scissors

The scissors are beaten by the rock
Man made steel has been left in shock
Now the rock has been beat
By a flimsy light sheet
The winning paper is where our words talk

A Little Bird Told Me

Sue decided to send Jim a tweet 
She used words that were quite indiscreet 
Calling him a fat turd -
(Using another word)
Their romance has taken a back seat!

Doodle the Footle 2 Tootle


I so love this form called Footle
It allows the poet to doodle
With so few words
Whether right or absurd
Now read , short trip, lets tootle

Little Miss Fancy Font

A sweet little girl named Alex.
Always put words in italics.
Plain print wouldn't do.
So when she was through.
They were known as Alex Italics.

P.D. Bye

There’s a peach of a girl named P.D.
Who is a friend of both you and me
She’s gone away
I already miss her today
Her kind words and Queen Slam poetry

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

A quiet teenager named Tina
Had bullies use words to demean her
But my memory lingers
cos she stuck up two fingers
then pushed them into the marina!

A Fathima - Limerick .

The poetry priestess Dawood 
Donned her Bowler ,as only she could
But a bad Irish breeze
Jellied her knees
Still her squiggly scarf wrapped her  GOOD !!!!

There's a guy on the Soup called Chris

Trooping of All Colours


The day I joined the Soup
Frankly I was so cock-a-hoop
    So many kind poets
    Who didn't all know it
Most definitely the best writing troop

Ahead of His Time

Young Shakespeare didst say to his tutor,
"Methinks I wouldst be much astuter,
And per chance, I wouldst say,
Mightest write a screen play,
If some fool wouldst invent the computer."

Genuine Damsel

I was lurking around but she finally found me,
We're watching the clouds and lying under a tree.

Saying words to be outspoken,
Worrying nothing even the glass is broken.

And I will lastingly love her because she's with me.

Stuck For Words

Once knew this dude named Bartholomew
Who tried mending everything with superglue
Now this is quite yucca
Got some in his cuppa
He was stuck for words in an interview

Romeo Potential

A lady once called me a romantic devil
In these sweet loving words, I forever will revel
My poems are comedy driven
My tender side is usually hidden
Stay tuned my friends, I have Romeo potential

Shady Sadie

There once was a lady named, Sadie.
Whose past was a little shady.
She once shot a man.
Who did not understand.
Difference of no and maybe.

My Friend Silent One

My friend Silent One brightens my days with words uplifting
Crowning him king of jolly old, would be befitting
Has my vote
This talented bloke
One vote per poet and no counterfeiting

Featherless Angels

How did you become featherless
Angels are always blessed and do bless
Standing too close to the fire
Devil got me in a crossfire
Make sure you always tell God yes

Why I Like the Slam

We are born into the world unclad
Soon we learn that clothes must be had
Good from a negative trait
Can be found if simply we wait
To recognize good we must have bad

The Aura of Rhymes


There's a poet called the Aura of Rhymes,
whose grammar is full of poetic crimes,
but she doesn't give a damn,
shows she's not an AI scam.
Her words still enchant like charming wind chimes.

Numpty

Sucker punched from down under
Ill intent, not a blunder
Your words don’t impress 
Don’t bash the U.S.
Who’s the numpty, I wonder
