Daily Poem

Now, here's an award winning poem written by [Mortified Penguin] back in 2009 for the Halloween Poetry Contest on Elftown.

The Elftown Ball

'Twas the night of Halloween and all through the town,
Men wore their tuxes and women donned their gowns.
In the effulgent moonlight they would dance, one and all,
For at last, it was the night of the masquerade ball.

Organizing the festival was, indeed, quite a task,
But it was all worth it, when they each held their mask.
It was a time to be carefree, a time to have fun,
They could finally let loose, the party had just begun.

Midway through the night, once Hedda was quite drunk,
Mortified Penguin drove his car through the wall with a "clunk"!
"Waz goin' own?!" he proclaimed with a shout,
"You ran over Hedda!" they replied, "You knocked him clean out!"
The penguin chuckled real loudly and ate an hors d'œuvre,
"What's wrong with that guy?!" "He's got some nerve!"

He paid them no mind and kept on eating,
"Call a doctor!" they shouted, "Hedda is bleeding!"
"Don't worry, you guys! He's just an old lecher!"
Mort only got glares as Hedda left in a stretcher.

An hour, some cake, and sixteen martinis later,
Mort started wrestling with an enraged alligator.
The guards and townspeople all gathered 'round,
"We think you'd better leave. Get out of Elftown!"

"I didn't want to be here anyway!" he boisterously exclaimed
He went on to say, "I hope you all get maimed!"
As he drove away in his car, he said, with a shout,
"Eat at Bob's Diner! Peace! I'm out!"

Admittedly, it wasn't really a poem children should read, but it'll be gone tomorrow, so don't worry.

Daily Poem

This time the (not so-Daily) Daily Poem being featured is entitled: Angels.

Angels
The angels carry their child.
Even when she is sleeping she is wild.
Flowers call her name.
Her spirit always stays the same.
Nature’s true beauty lies in those with purest hearts.
Flying with the angels is your wondrous start.

Daily Poem

Today the Daily Poem is proud to present 'Depression'

Depression is a long lasting disease
its a disease that's hard to heal
it makes you wanna fall to your knees
and I didn’t even know what to feel
Depression...I didn’t know who I was
I didn’t know how to be happy
I didn’t know who I loved
I always felt crappy and this is why
Depression is a long disease hard to heal

Daily Poem

Today the Daily poem is proud to present "You thought"


You thought you were cool,
But you're just a dumb fool

You thought you were smart,
For "breaking" my heart

You thought I would cry
When you said goodbye

But I was happy
And you were feeling crappy

Now the joke is on you

'Cause I'm glad that we're through

The one thing I regret,
Is that we ever met

I bet you're feeling sad,
Because you miss what you thought we had
But that's just too bad!
