I thought I would just try to write
albeit good, albeit shite,
I thought I wouldn't try to fight,
just let my words have there own might.
I didn't think I had enough to say
but then I thought I'd just try to play,
let my thoughts roll come what may,
cross my fingers hope and pray.
I got quite scared at first thinking what if I'm wrong
but then I thought why shouldn't I belong,
in a contest to ramble along
someone has to start singing or there wouldn't be a song
So shall I tell you about who I am
No your right, you don't give a damn
What about where I live or things I like
Wait how do I know when the clock will strike.
Here be me, writing away
silly girl I am with nothing to say.
I'll probably go to enter this and the contest will have ended,
Or I might just delete it, or it may be extended.
Oh well one thing I would just like to say.
Thanks for the exercise you gave my brain today.

You do it for me ...
tesse, it seems to me that you are unable to pen anything that does not catch my attention ... either your humor, your just a bit more acute look at life and things, and your (especially) slant on erotica. I cannot say how much I remember and appreciate the fact that I am here only because of you ... that meeting (such as it was) changed my life (albeit, in many ways very well, and in one way, putting me through the worst experience I have ever had. That said, the positives and the negatives in life teach us, don't they.
You, tesse, teach me everyday
To just keep on moving my way
Should I ever need my friend
Tesse will be there with a hand to lend

I love this kind of stuff that you write.
You are so very good at it Poetesse.
Think this is a brill piece.
It Really brought a smile to my face. I haven't been reading much poetry for a while and this was the perfect piece to get me in the mood again.
The lines>>>
So shall I tell you about who I am
No your right, you don't give a damn<<<
had me laughing out loud to myself.
Can't believe you wrote it in 10 mins flat tho... your keyboard must have been on fire.(lol)
Excellent!!

This was great. I especially like the opening lines 'I thought I would just try to write/ albeit good, albeit shite'. Some really humorous stuff in this wonderful piece. Best of luck in my contest, and thanks for entering.
