I took a drive down to the store to see what I could buy, and then I seemed to remember a challenge from this guy... So walking down the aisles I had to find the bags, of those things they call marshmallows but all I found were rags. I looked around and realized that this was a Goodwill store. So feeling quite the stupid one I headed out the door. I ended up at 'Food-4-less' a choice was to be made. Did I want fluffy or mini? I picked and then I paid. I grabbed a bag of fluffy ones and went back to my home. I had to build this thing so I could end this poem. I never thought that building this would come as quite the chore. I opened up the marshmallows and spilled them on the floor. By now you're probably wondering what is it I must build. The Eiffel Tower from 'mallows. Now ask me if I'm skilled. I want to do this oh so right but I found something wrong. I didn't buy enough bags, and this poem is kind of long. So I wont try and build this thing I find it much too hard. So now I'll quit and head on to Hollywood Boulevard! < !signature--> ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste.

Intreaging at the least I'll say, But without it there is no way, That I could smile the way I always do, After reading poems night and day. Truly a well thought out piece  |

Echo- Adorable thoughts. All my marshmallows end up in a steamy cup of hot chocolate ... and yours build towers of strength and beauty. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

OK, I asked for a good challenge and this was Trevors response...A good challenge...mmmm...how about making world peace happen? Or perhaps build a life size replica of the Eiffel Tower out of marshmellows? .....sorry, couldn't resist... ok so I tried to build the life size replica of the Eiffel Tower, but like I said, I only bought one bag hehe. Now this was quite funy and I got a big laugh abou tit, but such as he couldnt resist tping it, I couldnt resist typing a poem about it. So I am glad it was enjoyed =) ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ Love is such a lonely art, and death is but a taste. Minds are merely instruments that often go to waste! ~*~ ^i^ ~*~ |
