Humorous. A badly written poem.

20 Replies

My friend Heather on a writer's group wrote the following as an example of a badly written poem. It says a lot about my poems that I thought it the best I've ever read. 🙄

I saw thee coming o'er t' hill

Your footsteps next I heard

Your lips the tasting at thereof

As sweet as lemon curd

Lo! How I longed to touchest thee

To givest thee mine heart

But run a mile I did instead

Remembering your fart

All poems need to be read aloud to be properly enjoyed don’t they 😉

An eminent Cambridge Professor of English Literature, Quiller Couch, would agree with you. Just reading his series of lectures from 1911.

Ahh the mighty 'Q' ...... or should that be 'phewwww' whilst holding one's nose?

in reply to majji

However much I loved you

One thing I'd never do

Is be the one behind you

When standing in a Q.

I thought it was pretty good too .

Lemon curd is not always that sweet got a bit of a zing can think of sweeter things 😀😏X

in reply to Kittykat2

Perhaps that’s why it was considered a lousy poem? 🤔
