In my sorrow
I asked to Barrow
Some of your tomorrow.


just let me know what you think i'm just trying out new things. see if any of you can do this write a poem with the last word in each line rhymeing and see how many lines you can get. lets say its a challenge to all of you.

The piece you write is good to see,
I like the spirit within thee,
Thus to write or to flee
Tis the offer thou makes of me.
Let your grace always be,
With your heart high in trees.

Great work here.

Cool idea, Jeremiah and such abstract meaning in these three lines too

let me continue

In my sorrow
I asked to Barrow
Some of your tomorrow
You refused to let me borrow
We had a furious row

thanks for both of your replies very much. but kaile i did not mean the poem like that or at least how you finished it. see i  wrote it to ask when i'm feeling down "in my sorrow" "i asked to barrow" can i have a little of your time from tomorrow to help me out with my saddness. thank you again

Jeremiah, this one is really nursery-rhyme like, I love it. The idea is great, too.
The barrow was a typo, right?

nice.. well done Jeremiah..

Mm.. I think not, I think 'barrow' was no typo.. but I am not sure what it means.. sounds good though! ^_^

Wow, I am really not good with rhyming.. I take at least ten minutes to come up with ONE rhyme.. ^_^ I will try...

Sunny skied
And butterflied,
Little dragonfried.
Patience tried,
But children lied,
Now winter's gone, and summer died.

hehe, bit o' poetic liscence here.. *_^

Luv,
