...does G-Mom's theme song that I wrote count as poetry?


Cindy

I would think so, Cindy! Wasn't it done to the tune of the Beverly Hillbillies theme?

Dianna

yep!
You remember it?

G-Mom's Theme Song
(to the tune of Beverly Hillbillies)

Come and listen to my story 'bout a mom named Karen
Who had a little problem with her drinkin' and her swearin'
She spent a lot of time out workin' in her yard
Then she'd come in at night all worn out and tard

Well, Karen had a question 'bout some flowers she was growin'

She posted on the forum and played games late at night
while she drank her Zinfinsomething and got feelin' pretty right
She met another member who was just about as nutty
and that's how Gardenmom became "The Dingbat"s Buddy".
(Two peas in a pod........Double trouble!)

Afgrey and G-Mom hit the Banter Hall half lit
They wrecked havoc on the forum, got off topic quite a bit
The hostesses gave warnings, but the two would just ignore 'em
No one was safe from the “Tag Team” of the forum.

Well, now it's time to say good-bye, G-Mom just got the call
She's meetin' afgreyparrot down in the Banter Hall
They'll try the hostesses patience and get this from Mr. Bill
They might not get *poofed* tonight, but I'm sure some day they will.

I still love it! So sassy...just like the tag team!

Dianna

LOVE IT!

Cindy I love it sounds just like you and G-Mom
Jimmy

Ya know.. I still get a big ol' grin when I read it!! Awesome!!

Remember this one......

Good ole Cindy
had a bar
E I E I O
She had some skunks
and Lola too!
E I E I O
With a Jim Beam here
and a Zinfinsomething there
Here a bird,there a skunk
everywhere you'll find a drunk
Good ole Cindy
had a bar
E I E I O!

G-Mom

That's pretty funny too. Ya'll sure can be creative!

I don't imagine Mr. Bill would be kind enough to edit the
“Tag Team”
and the
Dingbat’s
in my song...

I thought I fixed 'em all last night, but now my edit time is up.
PLEEEEESE!

What the.....?

Now they are gone, but when I click on another screen they are back, then gone again.

I've lost my mind.....again.

How many times do I have to tell you......

YOU CAN'T LOSE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE!!!



G-Mom

True!
What I meant to say was...
I've lost my mind...STILL!

They are truly gardenhelper classics!!!

That's cute, Grey Parrot - sometimes publications actually request poems and lyrics that are inspired by songs.

You might like the style of poetry called 'Gloss'. It comes from an Italian word . . . I'm going to introduce this style on another post.

What you do is take a famous poem/song or a stanza from one and work off its lines . . . I think this would be a good exercise for everybody.
