a chance for all u terrace word mongers to create a line or 2

can b about footie, ure dog crapping, wot ever

i ll even start u off with one of my favs ;

Its raining in rio
Wot a drag
Rainy days in rio
Everything seems to sag
So
I think
ill just hang and dry
let a little time pass me by
At an abandoned corner luncheonette
Where business is bad
But the owners are
neither sad
or glad
But the workers are cool
Glad of an empty stool
Time To look and reflect
At the heat that’s never spent
Its raining in rio
Wot a drag

never 2 sure bout the end, any way
and looby a little bird tells me youre a bit of a poet on the q/t

Why do I find it hugely appropriate your poem includes the word 'stool' ?

Never done this before
if you want poetry about football, go to my home town's very own Football Poets' website:

http://www.footballpoets.org/index.asp

you can even add your own poems...

PROMOTED
as i awoke one day in spring
i heard a blue tit softly sing
with a chirp, and with a trill
it jumped onto my windowsill
so silently, i climbed out of bed
and slamed the window and crushed his head

Tisdale must go.
Be replaced by Jepo
Or someone who's not a T**t

But i am dreaming
Because i get the fealing
That Tisdale's here, and thats, that!!!

Brockey blossom and its blowing


Down irregularly straight roads

In evenings are glowing

Of dappled lights

and New rose heads are showing

Brockleys blossom and its /blowing

Foxes are feeding

doves are cooing

a new season breaking

over strong coffee

forsaking conversation

brockleys blossom is blowing

thoughts of winter

are finally going
