Calm be the ocean
Happy and free
Sail me away
With the deep blue sea
Cast out in a boat
Singing a merry tune
Lay under the stars
With a custard moon
I lie in my slumber
Gently rocked asleep
Oblivious to everything
Curled in a heap
The wind brushes my hair
Wooden floor boards creak
The breeze cools
And it sooths me
I sail into dream land
Knowing I’m safe
In the palm
Of gods hand

Thank you Suncatcher
For your beautiful rhyme.
It made me think back
To my own happy time
Of sailing warm oceans
In search of a tail,
Or a fin or a splash
To show there's a whale
Swimming beneath us
Mile after mile
Breaking the waves
To cause me to smile.
Go safely brave giant,
And breach when you dare.
Show just a glimpse of you
To those humans who care.

Blimey
YOu two are clever!!
Well -written Joanne and lovely
and Whalewatcher - how did you relply so quickly??
If I wrote a poem
it wouldn't be that good
If I even had a go I
Do not think I should

Who quite possibly lacks imagination0 -
Hi Toni
Before this gets silly
I just have to say
Your poem was lovely
In every way.
Your writing showed style
Imagination and flair
And ought to be published
By someone somewhere.
Love

I cannot write for toffee
I cannot write for figs
I do like drinking coffee
and dancing Irish Jigs...
(or wearing silly wigs....) ending optional
Promise to go away not Val :oops:0 -
Jigs or wigs depending on the day & the state of the joints perhaps.
I'm having a 'jigs' day, the first for a little while so making the most of it.

How are the classes ?
They have gone really fine
Now it is the holiday
So i will have some time
To write some more poetry
Read or reply to you
Maybe lounge in the garden
And stare at the sky so blue
I will dream about September
when it is time for school
And i will do more classes
which i find helpful and cool
Id better finish this poem
As it starts to drive me mad
It is nice to hear you i feel so gladJoanne0 -
Whoever said that poetry's dead,
Would only have to read this thread,
To see that poetry's alight,
And thriving on the AC site.
Joanne, and Val, Toni too,
Are writing poetry for you.
So well done, girls, every one,
And now my little rhyme is done!

Oh whaley you have a talent
Your poetry full rhyme and wit
I can almost imagine me there
On a beach where i like to sit
I could imagine you swimming
On the crest of a wave
Riding through the ocean
or gliding past rocky cave
My nostrils smell the salt
In my daydream can imagine
My thoughts take me there
Reality its just a pork scratchinJoanne0 -
Well done all of you - Joanne you really started something there

Well I can't compare with any of this........
I can only add my favourite 'Sea' poem......
I must go down to the sea again,
The lonesome sea and the sky.
I left my vest and socks down there,
I wonder if they're dry.
Sorry................I'll get my coat.....
Rob xRob0 -
There are holes in the sky
Where the rain gets in
They are ever so small
Which is why rain is thin
Rob, you and I share a common love - the poetry of one Mr S Milligna, the well-known typing error! DD (who's also fetching her coat - wait for me, Rob!)Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
DD......seems like we do indeed.........
Proper poetry........
Rob xRob0 -
I liked those two poems you too
Give us some more then0 -
Things that go bump in the night,
Should not really give one a fright.
Its the 'ole in each ear,
That lets on the fear.
That,
and the absence of light.

Morning Rob! How about some Michael Rosen?
Down behind the dustbins
I met a dog called Jim.
He didn't know me
And I didn't know him.Have you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
If an excavator excavates
A motivator motivates
An activator activates
A rotivator rotivates
A cultivator cultivates
And an operator operates
What does an alligator do?

Never come across that one! Ogden Nash (who was American)
Sure, deck your lower limbs in pants,
That's the trend, my sweeting:
You look great as you advance,
But have you seen yourself retreating?
(I think I've got the second line wrong, but at least it scans!) DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
Hi Joanne,
Very god and it took me there as well. I got Val's whale under the boat (I hope its a nice one Val and not going to do what that one did this week The painting the underside of yachts with the same colour as a whale's belly may not be the brightest thing 'we do eh?x)
Glad the classes are going well but about time you did some more poetry Joanne! ((( ))) xx0 -
