Da Crib: Challenge One

This is only for those that are in
the group "Da Crib" a hangout for
my friends on here, and place of
fun and games. If you are my
friend, and wish to join then go
for it.

http://allpoetry.com/group/info/Da%20Crib?stay=1

The first challenge you are to
write a poem inspired by one of
the following phrases. The phrase
you choose MUST be posted in your
authors notes, along with your
username so that I know who is
entering the contest.

If someone else has chosen the
phrase you want, you cannot use
it. That would make YOUR poem
unoriginal. And I don't want
unoriginal- you don't either. lol

So when you do choose your phrase,
in your comment below let me know
which phrase you will use. So
everyone knows what phrases have
been taken, I will put the username
of the taker next to the phrase.

If I do not post it in time, refer
to the comments below.

Torpedo dreams [TeenPoetDude]
Raging rapids

          lol I had an actual picture of me on it before, but AP made it look really messed up, so I took it off.
          Seriously, it made my nose look bigger, and made me eyebrows look weird so I look angry.. or something. *shrugs*
          So now I have the soccer ball.
