goomba on the guide wrote:

ill start with a limmerick:

brat by goombapatrol

there once was an unpleasant lad
he always acted real bad
he stomped on cats toes
and fingered his nose
he'd make you sure as heck mad!

~sweet princess: a haiku by goombapatrol~

a peachy princess
taken by goombas (like me!!)
then her hero came


My Haikus By goombapatrol054

I have written more,
But they are hidden away.
Maybe I'll show them.

a rare haiku by goombapatrol054

rare made us classics
conker, banjo, donkey kong!
then nintendo spoke.

christmas limerick by goombapatrol

There once was a fir tree (a green)
The branches on it were quite lean
Each time the wind blew
It swayed fro and to
This was quite a sad sight to be seen

Mirror
a haiku by goombapatrol

A grounded mirror
Slowly turns invisible
I’d seen a puddle

The Spell of the Moon by goomba

A glowing finger
S t r e t c h e s
Reaches the trees
Birds fall silent in their nests

A silvery breath
F l o a t s
Glides into the lake
Exposed fishes dance

A brightening glare
Pierces
Streams freely in the air
Shatters observers’ gazes

The Dark by goomba

I stagger to my room
Terribly tired
Gradually swaying head plummets
The pillow is a cloud

I request a dream
Immediately sleep
Drowsy dilated eyes perceive
My haven as now a hell

I plead for discontinue
Unquestionably rejected
Shadows quiver with emancipation
My nightmare is a reality

I weep in submission
Unknowingly awake
I fall back in slumber
This time in peace

a rock haiku by goombapatrol054

if you please, dear rock
dont smash my poor lil' head in
attack them, instead!

Kayla a haiku by goombpatrol054

this sweet lil' puppy
she's cute-thats why you got her
but MAN does she bite!

(she's been chewing on everything)
KillerSlime

there are more kinds of poetry than that... Tanka, for instance. what Haiku were derived from.
~Sylph~

I prefer lyrics mysylph, which though metered rhyme I think deserve their own category.
goombapatrol054

yeah, thats all i could think of..

sylph, is it possible for you to edit the poll?

(if not, we could just say our favorite types here)
~Sylph~

Duly edited and I liked your work. I'll share a few of mine though its been forever since I wrote any.

A few token words

The words they are so few,
But atleast they do come.
Most seem meaningless,
Yet there still are some,


Some that make me ache,
Some that make me smile,
Some that make me important,
Atleast for a little while.

Its too Late, for too Late

(1st verse)
I dont have the time
Because its Once upon-
A maybe never was
...
All the shoulda beens
And coulda beens
Are I'll get to it-
Later's, reached its end


(chorus)


Its too Late
For too late
Better not to contemplate


Its too late
For too late
Im too lazy to procrastinate


Its too late
For too late
All of that will have to wait


(second verse)
And yesterday
I meant to say
Tommorow never comes
But...
Lazy suddenly cropped up
And it got in the way
Or maybe I was dreaming up
The excuse for the delay


(repeat chorus)


(3rd verse)
Someday I'll get to
Those everythings that
I planned to do all along
But...
I have so many things
I forgot to start or
Have yet to leave unfinished
Like this...

heres a few more of mine:


In the moonlight by goomba

In the moonlight, howling hounds
Sing sad and mournful midnight sounds.
Hopeful, hungry, hurt, and lonely
Crying for their one and only
Lost lovers reunite in song
Music flows from deep ‘their heart
Missing still a vital part
Lovers lonely, in deep song
In the moonlight.


The Sky and the Clouds simlile by goomba

The sky is like a calm pond,
A ripple shimmers above.
The clouds are like a pillow
Which on top of, thou art dead to humankind

The sky is right atop the world,
A great watchtower o’er ev’rything.
The clouds are merely pretenders,
They obscure the heavens with their lies.

But the sky ‘tis one great illusion,
While the clouds dance before your eyes!
The sky is only your reflection externally,
Whereas clouds reveal what you hide.

Endless skies show what thou neighbor can see,
Greatness, which is owed to yourself (not at all).
You conceal what you feel,
And then feel, but nothin’ at all.

Then the clouds, thou must know,
Are blunt, yet sincere.
‘Tis the honest-man who is ugly,
Yet the most ‘tractive of all!

My body craves to be sky-like,
Yet my soul knows clouds are destiny.

my "explanation" of sky and clouds (only I can fully understand this poem)

Sky = External self (appearance)
Clouds = Internal self (soul)

Code:
The sky is like a calm pond,     This  stanza is a physical
A ripple shimmers above.                    description of the sky and
The clouds are like a pillow                    clouds, others may see them.
Which on top of, thou art dead to humankind

The sky is right atop the world,      This is what others may think of them.
A great watchtower o’er ev’rything.
The clouds are merely pretenders,
They obscure the heavens with their lies.

But the sky tis one great illusion,                   This is what they actually are.
While the clouds dance before your eyes!
The sky is only your reflection externally,
Whereas clouds reveal what you hide.

Endless skies show what thou neighbor can see,       Accurate description
Greatness, which is owed to yourself, (not at all).   of the sky.
You conceal what you feel,
And then feel, but nothin’ at all.

Then the clouds, thou must know,         
Are blunt, yet sincere.          Accurate description of the clouds.
Tis the honest-man who is ugly,
Yet the most ‘tractive of all!

My body craves to be sky-like,         
Yet my soul knows clouds are destiny
