Silver Ships and My Green Slime

Missing image

 

  Spend a day 
   at the shore 
  arriving early 
   Sunday morn’. 

 

  Silvery ships 
   painted white 
  golden rails- 
   majestic sight! 

 

  classic forms, 
   jazzy lines. 
  But what grabs me? 
   I see green slime! 

 

  Waves lapping 
   leaving more 
  I lean over 
   from the shore… 

 

  I stretch my hand 
   to feel the slime 
  I drag it back, 
   Ahhh, so sublime! 

 

  The perfect green 
   just like a jel 
  the perfect feel 
   the perfect smell! 

 

  Beautiful girls 
   on the deck 
  they want me up 
   I protest-  
 “But my slime…”  
   Ah, what the heck! 

 

  Goodbye, slime, 
   we are through 
  Some other time 
   for me and you! 

 

  Perhaps a future 
   fancy dine 
  We’ll meet again 
   at dinner time... 

  theirs: 


  mine! 

 


 
  Maybe you'll be 
   the Hollywood beau 
  in a horror-fest’s 
   late movie show! 

 

  Business partner? 
   I’ll make you mine! 
  We’ll get you served 
   on all airlines… 

 

  Sea vegetables, 
   power pills, 
  soon I’ll be 
   a man with gills.  
                                                 Do you Tango?   

 

  If all is lost 
   then I’ll go meet ya 
  at the Botanical Gardens 
   and Arboreta! 

 

  I’ll be your guy 
   you’ll be my girl, 
  together we’ll make 
   a fine, green slimy world! 


  Come here, baby, slime me! 


















  Ahhhhhhhh!

    Slimy!

    I thought it was quit efunny, but my favorite part wa sthe pictures. I have never seen pictures in a poem before! That was real fun! I was singing it for some reason. Some tune came out of nowhere and I just started to sing. Hee hee. Anyway, this poem was great, and the background, and pictures really lived nit up! It was overall very awesome!!!

    Keep writing!

    Sincerely,

    Slimetacular

    What can I say? I was met with absolute bafflement when I saw the title, wondering what it could be about. My intrigue and curiousity led me in to examine this whimsical piece (that and the extra 3 points for commenting ) and what should I happen to find? Why, one of the most amusing, out of the box writes I've ever had the pleasure to read. Excellent work, keep it up, we all need a good little article like this from time to time, a story of people, places, and slime. (hehe, I'm a poet )

    very funny

    first and foremost lol u never cease to amaze me with ur writes and now with saying that this is a very funny write but i feel as if im a ghostbuster...that and you made me feel as if i wanted and/or needed to hurl up my dinner(no offense)lol but might i recommend that you use the white for font text color cause the slime green background w/friends is in a way trying "swallowing" the write
