User:Soap/poems

I have poems on my website as well, but  I want to put this here for others to see, since my website is well hidden. Only poems with meaningful content will go here. I have never pretended to be a good poet or even a good writer, so I don't expect to win awards. Originality is more important to me than skill.

Limericks
Im a big fan of Ogden Nash's style of limericks, a style also used by others, in which rhyming words are respelled to match a (typically irregular) spelling on the first line. This site provides good examples. Thus I originally wrote the diaper poem with P& at the end of the first line and likewise with the other lines. But I changed it back to normal spelling because I realized it might be confusing to read.

Procter & Gamble makes Pampers and Sheets you can put in your hampers and Beauty and shaving supplies, But their diapers win first prize And that's why their name has an ampersand.

The Suffering Frog
A frog by the name of Moses said, "I can't breathe where my nose is!" The doctor said, "Well-up, It seems you've developed batrachochytridiomycosis."

Lake Webster
Frogs are important in my poetry. On a jog with my dog, Blogged a frog on a log, "I'm at #Chargoggagogg- manchauggagogg- chaubunagungamaugg!"

I went for a walk in the Amazon, with my favorite pair of pajamas on.
