When A Young Lady Whose Name is Sue

When a young lady whose name is Sue
Lost a brand new shoe,
My wife Jane
Did bitterly complain,
When she found that shoe of Sue …

When a young lady whose name is Sue
Misplaced a brand new shoe,
I very much regret
That my dog Jet
Chewed that brand new shoe!

When A Young Lady Whose Name is Sue

When a young lady whose name is Sue
Said, “its perfectly true!”.
I made reply,
“Young lady you lie!
I can’t believe that of Lou!”.

There Once Was A Man With A Beard

There once was a man with a beard
Who the people thought rather weird.
He lived in a tumbled down house
Along with a mouse,
Of which he was afeared!

—

There once was a man with a beard
Whose hair was long and seared.
He lived all alone
In a castle of stone
And he never shaved his beard!

First Time

Not quite knowing what to do
She removes a shoe
Then, for the first time,
Is immortalised in rhyme

LITERARY REMAINS

Nature sings with her chorus of choice
giving each creature their own voice
so I pity those with deafened ear

who cannot hear.
who cannot hear.

One Leaf, Lost Amongst A Myriad Trees

One leaf, lost amongst a myriad trees
Though, perchance, someone sees
(Or has seen)
My book. And, having looked, does glean
Something beyond the machine.

Running a poetry blog – do you need a dedicated domain?

[image error]

The purpose of this post is to relate my experience of setting up a dedicated domain (kmorrispoet.com), on wordpress.com, to promote my poetry.

Please note, I am not a technical expert. For detailed support on setting up a wordpress.com domain, please refer to WordPress’s support pages which can be found here, https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/. While my host of choice is WordPress, it is also possible to purchase a domain and connect it to Blogger.

An Anoying Young Lady Named White

An anoying young lady named White
Keeps me awake at night.
At 12 am
I am sleeping when
She sings “Silent night!”.

An anoying young lady named White
Keeps me awake at night.
At 12 am
I am sleeping when
She dances a sailor’s hornpipe!

I said to my friend Miss White
“Your company is a true delight.
We have strolled together
Through all kinds of weather,
But must you swing from the bedroom light?”

Another Poem?

My poem, repetitive
And incomplete
May
Be published one day
And defeat
Understanding.

Words tossed away
May constitute art
In the minds of some.
I come
Back to the start.
Incomplete? Defeat? Art?
