(haha... something from my fourth writing year, age eleven. just had a vague memory of it, decided I'd share. See what you think. I've come a VERY long way. REMEMBER now, I was a kid.)

"A Pile of Moss"

A pile of moss, he ate my boss.
He ate my boss, that pile of moss.
A pile of moss, he ate my dental floss.
He ate my dental floss, that pile of moss.
A pile of moss, he ate my best friend Ross.
He ate my best friend Ross, that pile of moss.
He ate my boss, my dental floss....
and my best friend...
it's no big loss.

How cute!! Once when I was 9 I wrote this poem about the sun. I found it the other day and started reading...the whole time thinking OMG I wrote that??? Well it was kinda funny now even if I was trying to be a serious poet at the time. Very cute, keep writing!!

How come it is so easy for a person to say "I hate you," but it is so difficult for someone to say "I love you" and really mean it????

HA! Well, if you ever get sick of writing poetry, I think you might be able to pick up where Dr. Suess left off.

I think this is your best poem so far Allan

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.

Awesome! This is dang funny. I think you were born a poet if you write this way at age eleven, lol. I could barely rhyme in poetry at that age, lol. I remember the painstaking efford I'd have to make every time I got an assignment to write a poem in school. Funny how interests change over time, eh?

ANyhow, this is a very good poem. Congradulate the self of your past, lol.
