HUH? what was that?



a buzzingly buzzutiful bee buzzed by my ear
 as i opened, popperty pop, my can of cold beer
 it ziggitly and it zaggity zagged in front of i
 then crashitly crunch it collided with a blowy fly
 their flipperty flapperty wings tried to flutter
 to stop them fallin''n' fallin' into the butter
 i was going to have some lovey toasty woasty
 but the buggly buggy bugs had spoilt it for me
 they're now wrestling in my d-d-d-dairy spread
 i hope that they don't end up dead dead dead!

Mick Reid

I like to write all sorts of themes in my poetry. i mainly use rhyming poetry, some from personal experiences and some from characters i develop in my mind. i can be very strong with emotional use in my poetry. some have little twists, real life situations, humor and of course love, sadness, ect. more…
