I peek around the corners of these hallowed halls of rhyme.
Trying to decide what poet is begging to be poked this time.
I pull up just a few past posts.. hmmm now let me see.
I got the Interloper, Midnitesun and of course that Larry C.

I thought about gettin Doreen, but then again.. she pokes herself.
And a good poem poke is only good when its poked with stealth.
I could poke some past poet pals like 'Deer or Andrew Scott.
But am feared they might miss the pokin' since I don't see them alot.

I could poke Poet DeVine, but then she would just erase,
any good 'ole jousting poem I posted in this place.
And then of course.. there is the one they call the WayOutWalt,
But then again he might cry, and it would be all my fault.

I peek around the corner again.. just to see who's here.
I just can't seem to pick though.. are there any volunteers.
It won't hurt, I promise, just a poke and then I'm gone.
It fades with time I promise.. just go and ask LongJohn.

So until I find a volunteer.. I'll just repost a few.
So maybe you can read it and get a laugh or two.
Read them.. you will see that no one was offended
You will see its all in fun and no harm is intended.  

Remember me with a smile on your face, or please don't remember me at all.

Lucie,
That's how it is, once or twice,
Then it's time to treat me nice.
I thought the game had just begun,
Now it seems that it's all done.

Ok Larry if I must,
won't have my poking called unjust.
I will poke you once again,
if ya can't take it, yell out WHEN.

But then again.. ya seem resiliant.
in this jousting you've been brilliant.
Cause in this game there are no fools..
just poke me back.. you know the rules.

Remember me with a smile on your face, or please don't remember me at all.

Lucie,
Yippee, now I can hardly wait,
I'm so glad you took the bait.
All here a bunch of chickens,
None willing to take a licken.


Post in #17, okay.

Gummby had Pokey
This much it true
I do suppose Lucie
Should have someone too

To poke and prod
To give a little nudge
A human pin coushin
Would be best, I judge

So who would be best?
Who can take the jabs?
Who wouldn't mind?
If it's them she stabs?

I think I know who
The one with no fear
The one that they call
Mister Volunteer
