(COLLABORATION) FLY IF YOU CAN

Hello again.

  Today i am running a collaboration contest, which when finished, the winning entrants will be able to place the finished poem on their page. There will be no HM's here...just 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places.

The idea is very simple.
I have given you two verses to begin the poem. All you have to do is add further verses to complete it.
I expect at least two verses from you but after that, it is entirely up to you how many you write.
I will expect one of the verses to be the last verse of the poem.

I will pick out all the verses i like and stick them into the one piece to make up this finished product.
I may pick one or more of your verses, but not neccesarily all, so the more you have, the more chance there is of becoming a collaborator.

I expect you to keep the rhyme so it fits with the two verses i gave you.

It is quite straight forward. Rules are as follows.

1...watch your language as this is an open contest.
2...If you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop by and ask. I will answer as soon as i can.



OKAY
THAT'S IT!

            So, below are the two verses to start you off....Have fun!

 

 

 

                                  FLY IF YOU CAN (COLOBORATION POEM) 

                                             Fly said the Eagle, fly if you can

                                         Then pushed him right out of the nest

                                            And he flapped and he flapped

                                                As his little heart raced

                                        He was out on his first major quest 

                                                                 *

                                  He cried as he fell with the ground coming up

                                      And he spread out his talons to slow

                                          He flapped those wings hard

                                            As he plummeted down

                                     To the rising ground waiting below
