Rhymin' Time

[usatxmom]

mbams, a kindred sister
on a narrow path
that leads to life
and heaven above,

Let's join hands
and sing to our God
Let our voices ring
With heartfelt love.

 

[Grammalamma]

mbams and usatxmom, it's nice to read your words
Some people don't like rhymin', they say it's for the birds
Here's something to think about, when you have the time
Come on now, be honest, when last did you hear a bird rhyme?

 

[Theofilus]

In this forum I am new
I'm not sure just what to do
I don't know many people here
so this might not go well, I fear

People don't have names that rhyme
with anything most of the time
dsdumpling, Hesmyall
I love you one I love you all

A famous poet I may not be
the reason is plain for all to see
You said rhyme and so I did
but for now farewell I bid

 

[Grammalamma]

Theofilus, welcome to the forum and to this thread,
I think you're really good, you could make some bread
If you choice to rhyme for a living
That is some great gift that you were given

 

[Theofilus]

Gramma, thanks for what you said
I'm not sure if it is true
But now I'm going off to bed
My time here today is through

(It's past 2:30 AM. This place is dangerous to regular sleeping habits.)

'Night all.

 

[Ceris]

Lady in Waiting is now a moderator,
I don't how anyone could hate her.

 

[Theofilus]

To Jinnapiban

I don't know you very well
except just through the Internet
but one thing to you I tell
although I haven't seen you yet

I hope that one day soon we'll meet
and it does not matter where
I'm looking forward you to greet
in person, whether here or there

I hope you're in a happy mood
but in another thread you'll find
that I have thrown at you some food
and you've been hit with melon rind

(See the food fight thread for more details.)

And since it's the feast of firstfruits today (not Ishtar Sunday as some would have us believe) here are two more.

Jesus died upon a tree
He died for you, He died for me
He died so that we all might live.
My life, my all to Him I give.

Jesus, He died on a tree
He did it for you and for me
that we might know
which way to go
with Him forever to be

 

[Theofilus]

Grammalamma is God's daughter.
Do you all think that I oughter
tell her that I think she's nice?
Tell me, please give me advice.

Do you all think that I ought
to tell her this now or if not
then what should I do with this rhyme
post it now, or wait some time?

 

[Grammalamma]

Theofilus had a rhyming talent, it's true.
He also is quite wise, and he knows just what to do.
When he shares the gospel, all need to listen to him
Jesus is the answer, without Him you can't win

Today we celebrate His glorious resurrection
Because of Jesus, we should always strive for perfection
Theofilus, I know that you too are a child of the King
I'm glad you joined this forum, much happiness you will bring

 

[Theofilus]

Grammalamma says I'm good.
She says it all the time.
I wonder maybe if I should
try it one more time.

Ceris, soldier of the Lord
a mighty man of God is he.
When he attacks the Devils hoards
they turn around and flee.

But now I bid you all farewell
at least for just a while.
I'm going to go out a spell.
Now, don't forget to smile.

 

[Grammalamma]

Theofilus, it amazes me, how your words do flow
Hope you come again, sorry you had to go
Don't worry, when I read your words, I wont forget to smile
You really are terrific, no kidding, you've got style.

 

[usatxmom]

There once was a man named Theofilus,
Who went to the zoo on an omnibus,
The bus had a flat,
While Theofilus just sat,
And that is why there has been suchafuss.

 

[Theofilus]

I don't know how to pronounce
usatxmom's username but
it matters not one single ounce.
If I can't say it, so what.

 

[Theofilus]

This is my one-hundredth post
It's just about average at most
Now I'll "Post Quick Reply"
and away this will fly
to some far away Internet host.

Of some one else I was told to rhyme
(and I have done most of the time)
But I don't know who to choose
to either praise or abuse
and I hope that that is no crime.

 

[Lilly of the Valley]

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
Never think about it every night or day
If I had wings I might fly away
I wish I could soar
Flying high through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly!!!!!!

Falsus - The Letum

The darkness comes, the halls are dead,
All happiness gone, I feel the dread,
This place it reeks of only greed,
The falcity lingers, an unholy creed,
I'm sick of feigning pleasure in these lies,
It devours my soul, and I'm torn inside,
Thus evil unhappiness always persists,
Thou rage and pure anger it always resists...

 

[Grammalamma]

I'm glad to see you posting
the_letum & usatxmom
I don't mean to be boasting
But I still think rhymin's fun

It started with my requesting
to write about someone here
I know it's not that easy
So I changed it, don't you fear

Just rhyme about anything you'd like
I hate rules, don't you?
You could rhyme about a bike
or a new car that is blue

 

[Theofilus]

As a turtle in snow
so is the sound of this thread-
It's silent in here.

Forgive me if, this time,
my poem does not rhyme.
For it is a haiku
and haikus don't have to.

 

[Grammalamma]

That's ok Theo
Do what you must do
Speaking of haikus
I don't have a clue

 

[Grammalamma]

It's been 3 days since anyone else has given a rhyme
It's sad, to think that this might be the end of a good time
I'll push this thread to page one once more
In hopes that someone else will open the door
And take this opportunity to share what they're thinking
If that doesn't happen, I'm afraid this thread will start stinking
