The heck is it with grandma?!
Amazing she never goes away
Poetry Puzzle
Yesterday she just showed up
Petting that darn pineapple
Pineapple, Pineapple
Everywhere there are pineapples!
So many pineapples, singing pineapples
Stop. Stop right there. Singing pineapples?
Singing pineapples, Pineapples under the sea
Anywhere you set your imagination for them to be!
Everywhere there are singing pineapples
Stop, STOP, STOP RIGHT THERE
Everybody clap your hands!
Swing your partner, there she goes!
(I'm procrastinating from my homework, I don't know where this is going anymore!)
Starfish in the sea
Anaphylactic shock!
Kleenex is for an untimely demise
Eggs are for the climax
Xenophobia keeps him
from love he does not deserve
Except those wedding rings
Soak in the bathtub
What? I'm sorry, that made no sense.
Babies must come from SOMEwhere
Everyone says from soaked wedding rings
Sometimes you just need to let it go
Oh my god where did we go wrong
Gone are the days of wishing for blessings
Soon will the days arrive when they come true
But soon again you’ll be gone
Washed away in my tears of blue
Everyday I take a moment
Thinking, sitting her, missing you
I sob and sob until I can’t no more
still stroking the pineapple dinosaur
Remember the days when we thought he was real
Lies that are burdened up on us now that we're old
Desperate for our old days of youth
So we can unlearn what we were taught
To live once again carefree and oblivious
So far away from what could mar our minds
Daring to dream grandma might not return
Never seeing the day when she doesn't
@snowflake_castiel, do you know the rules for this poem? You're supposed to start each line with the letter the previous line ended with. (Wow okay I sound really harsh and hateful there. How do I make this sound not harsh and hateful? I swear it's not meant to be harsh and hateful!)
Yelling at ducks who fly on by
Yelping as they steal all my French fries
I'm sorry! I'll shut up now. :)
Soaring through the sky
The ducks eat my food and laugh
@alice Oh, for some reason, I thought it was a rhyming thing. You didn’t seem harsh and thanks for clarifying. :)
How could they be so rude?
What happened to respect
Too many times I fall to their hate
Even when I know they're wrong
Grandma laughs and strokes her pineapple
Exactly when did she get here, again?
No problem, @snowflake_castiel. Sorry again.
Noon - she replied - that's when I arrived
Don't look so surprised, dear, I keep my own schedule
Except for Sundays
Spoiled milk is gross
Wait what?
Slip a tablespoon in the garden under the lavender leaves
Slosh a bit under the blueberry vines
