Inspiration Osmosis

DangDangDangDang Posts: 1,551
Everytime I come to the Poetry Board, and try to pick up inspirational writing vibes just from being here, and try to totally NOT concentrate on anything, time and time again the only thing that enters my mind is:


I had a dog named Rover
Put him in a box
and he shit all over


Although it DOES rhyme, it doesn't even qualify as a lousy haiku.

HELP!

    melt and go

    nothing is everything inside
    all of it is you
    is yours

    no more any
    but yours is endless
    each of us
    nothing
    something

    ending is starting

    good luck...

    Broken
    Sad
    Never
    had

    Light
    drained
    Dusk
    Pain

    Come
    again
    once
    more

    Sleep
    harbor
    Night
    shore

    Dream
    filled
    Canyon
    ridge

    Open
    door
    Tumble
    bridge

    Hollow
    horizon
    never
    more

    Around the bend
    We'll see
    I'm sure

    I read once on a church sign that the best gift you can give someone is encouragement

    Less than a year ago, a poem to me was.....well, look at the original post in this thread... :?

    Thank you Chadwick for your encouragement and also to all the kind-hearted people on here...Chickweed, Across Oceans, Godfather, Mikalina, Tremors, Pandora, Heart-Shaped Box, Pepper, Pilate of the Storm, Wolf.

    For all of us, encouragement, I believe, is a powerful thing.

    i agree 100 %.
    and i second that thanks, to everyone for sharing, encouraging, inspiring
    it's great.

    and that WAS fun to read Dang Dang :)

    Truer words there are not. :clap:

    Having almost drowned in negativity and me me me,
    I have found the only way to be
    is positively positive.

    This force changes lives all around,
    and then around.

    But mostly it changes me. :D
