Re: I Has Searched

My boyfriend said we were going to a ball
So I dressed in a gown, some heels and a shawl
But when he turned up in a scarf with a mate
To say the least, I was rather irate
It seems what he meant was a football game
Some local team, I forget the name
So we rode on his motorbike, outside of town
Him in his scarf and me in the gown
Twenty two men just chasing a ball
I saw no point to this evening at all
Then a man in black blew a whistle, at last
I thought that the nightmare had finally passed
But the twenty two men just changed ends and then
The whole thing started all over again
So I said to my boyfriend, I'm sorry, we're through
Perhaps, not the wisest thing I could do
He turned round and said, you're not riding my bike
If you want to get home now, you'll have to hike
So there was I, in a green satin gown
Trying to hitch a lift back to town
Nobody stopped, then it started to rain
I'm never going out with a biker again

A quick explanation for the apparent change of gender in the poem. But this was simply how it popped into my head one evening. Almost in it's entirety .
Mine, not to reason why.

Re: I Has Searched

Thankyou. I have dabbled in the past. But I never kept copies of my work. So I will have to either recall or improvise.

Re: I Has Searched

That is really good. I'm afraid I'm useless at poetry but I do admire any one who can.

It was Wetherspoons on an average day. The food is rather hit & miss unfortunately.

Re: I Has Searched

Ah thanks everyone for your replies. Love the poems already shown on here.

I'll put Chapter 1 of my stories in the Leisure section soon and see what you think. I promise I won't post anymore unless required.

A word of advice for those putting their own work on here though. Make sure you put a copywrite symbol (c) at the end with the date. I don't know how to do the proper symbol on here, I'm afraid.
