Give me your words and i'll give you a poem
Hi all,
This is something i tried a while ago and was pretty successful with. If any of you have seen before sunset the movie thats where i got the idea from
So heres how it works :
Just give me 4-5 words and i'll reply to it in the form of a poem.
Please avoid names and words of a vulgar nature. Anything else is ok.
Did i miss anyone ?
Love,Life,Friend,pain
Life a funny game and love the game changer
No rules apply, theres fun and there is danger
But we all play along and die trying to win
A life of happiness, one without sin
I am sitting this one on the bench
I am done trying, from fate a miracle wrench
There's peace on the sidelines, come sit with me
Let the other fight the fight, and let us just be
If a friend you make, standing true and fast
Through lifes lanes on your side, a relationship to last
The game is half won, and smile to make it show
Laugh out loud, confuse and confound everyone on the go
There's pain in broken bones and hearts every new day
They will come and go, these are our debts to pay
Sooner or later everything will be alright
Every tunnel will end, there will always be light..
sympathy, help, pretend, stranger, fraud
There are no free lunches in life's long lanes..
Help comes at a price, often measured in pain..
Every stranger is a possible friend..
Some true, most fraud that from above are send..
Friendships of convenience are all that exist today..
Ties that bind are broken, when truth has its final say..
We all pretend and smile as if nothing is wrong..
A smile not reaching our eyes, with the rest going along..
Sympathy is a word without meaning today..
It doesnt really matter whatever you say..
Someones pain is seen only nothing else is in the way..
Noone wants to be the shoulder to cry on, not today..
Nihilism
Annihilation
Slumber
Hollow
Salvation
There is no salvation in the end..
No end to the road up around the bend..
All the promises are but words with no meaning..
Just to keep you going, to keep you breathing..
Nihilism is also an exercise pointlessly made..
Whatever you prove, in time will fade..
What was once right is now unacceptable to me..
Countries and borders do not make you free..
Hollow religions and prophets come and go..
The easy way out is to tag along for the show..
For eternal slumber is the final and only end..
Death is the only answer, however oblivious we pretend..
Annihilation seems an impossible task..
But even that belief is but a careful mask..
All that is now true, will come to pass..
Another chapter in history, for the gullible human mass..
sad
confuse
afraid
hopeless
Its been a while since i've taken up rhyme..
The words failed me then, but i'm back again..
Noones gonna get the better of me this time..
No sadness will stop me, and i fear no pain..
It confuses me at times, how easy it seems to be..
In putting words together, rhyming comes free..
At times the words do make it seem impossible to get through
But being hopeless is to me a fate that isnt yet my due
I am not afraid i wont rhyme..
But i fear not finishing in time..
Hope this break wasnt too long for you..
I needed my time and am back as good as new
Easy words...for a poet hope so..
Love,Life,Friend,pain......
dodi you are too good ...here is my five words..
sympathy, help, pretend, stranger, fraud
elf
tintinnabulation
mordant
google
there is an elf in my phone i say..
he tricks me all the time , every day..
my life is all about running to the phone..
the tintinnabulation that makes me moan..
it rings only when i am not near..
important calls or not i run in fear..
but every time i get within reaching distance..
its stops it ringing, vibrating dance..
the elf is a mordant pain in the wrong place..
he fears me and my troubles he doesnt face..
and just when i need the phone for a call..
the elf makes sure the phone has a fall..
i live in constant madness day and night..
of an elf that doesnt show up to fight..
even google cant answer this mordant question..
how do i kill the elf in my phone ?
dodi....
In the distance i hear that faint cry
Of pain, shattering that peaceful blue sky
Noone else seems to hear its plea
Somehow of that sound they are free
I am not special but i hear it often
The scream of a planet from blows that never soften
I hear its pain and its rage at us grow
I wish we could stop or maybe just go a little slow
In silence i pray for some help for all
But the gods as always never heed my call
The earth is bursting at the seams you see
Theres volcanos bursting and angry seas
Maybe it will get a sign out sooner or later
Try to warn us, to take a foot of that accelerator
As flights ground to a halt all around europe
Is that enough ? Open these mortal eyes i hope
This is my silent song to you all
Prepare and brace yourself for that great fall
There is no apocalypse pending us here
But if we change, we can live without fear
Alright.... be creative ... Im hoping for a meaningful poem.
I'll give you five words.
Nihilism
Annihilation
Slumber
Hollow
Salvation
dodi... wher r u????? is it vacation time???
dodi m still waitin :-W
Bravo! It's amazing! Thanks a lot! dodi2all...
Soft/hard, polite/rude, reasonable/unreasonable
They all say be reasonable..
Theres a lot going on under the table..
They all want me to close my eyes..
Keep quiet if i cant go with their vice..
Its amazing how hard it can get..
To keep up with the world and not to fret..
Between a rock and a hard place i am now..
Being soft and submissive, i dont know how..
I wonder how they would react..
If i stopped my perfect act..
Slapped the first rude guy i meet..
Stopped work and put up my feet..
I can be the hard hearted guy if i want..
Stop at nothing and openly say i cant..
Would they care about the unreasonable me..
Or would they fire me and let me be free ?
There are so many stories of the dead..
Oh haunted houses, wizards and how people bled..
Some names even are not mentioned out loud..
Like Voldermont, every Harry has a dark looming cloud..
My girlfriend of old had her pet scare..
A mouse so tiny, glimpses were rare..
But i hate that little ball of fur..
It has often kept me from her..
She would see it when it wasnt there..
and cling on me while i smelled her hair..
But one day the mouse made me mad..
It stole from me the kiss i never had..
We were so close our noses we touching..
When with a squeak, havoc it did fling..
She forgot the kiss and everything else..
The moment passed and never came thence..
I wonder what could kill that rat..
Hit it on the head with a brick bat..
But all the plans i hatched fell flat..
When she adopted the creature and called me fat..
Now i sit and wonder what went wrong..
How did the tune change to my song..
All eggs in one one basket crushed to the ground..
I ponder when love will visit me next time round..
I have a blog for the same thread.. Please send your requests to

"Ali Baba and 40 thieves" are now "Ali Baba and 30 thieves" ; 10 were laid off.
lonely, aware, happy, beautiful, romantic
Lonely at heart we all are..
Reasons for it i look for near and far..
Everything is but big glory dreams..
An excuse for making it feel better than it seems..
Aware as i am of this human plight..
All my ambitions crash from the fancy flight..
And i wander empty streets in my mind..
Answers to unknown questions trying to find..
Even love is but a beautiful facade..
An excuse to keep from being lonely and sad..
We burden ourselves with family ties..
To keep form letting out those long held cries..
Happy am i in simple things i find..
But on some nights, fate is not kind..
And tears well up but cant be shed..
For no true reason, as i lie in bed..
Romantic , optimist and go getter i was..
But all these adjectives have come to pass..
As i still look for reason and rhyme..
My life is slowly running out of time..
dodi2all you're a talented man! You have proved yourself already!
Now,my words are,
Soft/hard, polite/rude, reasonable/unreasonable,
words: Heart, In , My , Deep
There are no simple roads to love..
The exit wounds are easily found..
Fleeting like a turtle dove..
Memories are left behind to hound..
My heart bears scars of old..
Some stories hidden, some often told..
But somehow every new strike from cupid..
Leaves a new scar and me looking stupid..
Deep in my heart i still believe..
Of true love and its heavenly feel..
But every tale so far did deceive..
And now before no lady do i kneel..
try with these words..
1.egg
2.dead
3.loud
4.mouse
5.kiss
:D
thanks dodi...u r really talented..n its very nice poem that u wrote...:)
rose,beauty,friend,color, pink
This is a true story i type..
Of love, one that created hype..
The beauty in the story as always said..
I think of you just as a friend..
The funny part is he was a friend of mine..
And for days i had seen him pine..
Girls wanted gifts often and more..
And my pal paid for in cash galore..
When the roses died and the candles melted..
Her affection for him also wilted..
So he decided to get a final answer..
He was not a really good romancer..
In a thousand fragments of pink petals..
And with a ring of precious metals..
He stood on one knee and proposed..
And she in petty words disposed..
This tale is common i know..
Every one has wounds to show..
But he was new to love and all such..
And to him it mattered too much..
The tale became the talk of town..
The girl gained glory, the boy a frown..
Till he left the city for good..
To no girl, even look at he would
I came
I saw
I conquer
I rule
now write me something
Sunless, Sad, dead, lonely, Tree
The trees of my childhood are all dead..
So many felled for the greed of men fed..
The green from my window i saw is gone..
Now i feel a sad sunless dawn..
Where once majestic oaks stood in glory..
Now structures of concrete tell a different story..
Sooner than later not a leaf will be seen..
No autumn gold, no spring green..
Memories of an old rope swing hurts me so..
All that was good had to go..
i wonder when they will charge me cash..
To see the last tree, when the world will dash..
the word prostitution makes your request invalid
Words : respect, wars, money, love, service
There once were days when wars had true reason..
They were not ever without rhyme or reason..
Some like Troy for the love of a woman like no other..
Now for a reason they dont even bother...
The wars of today have no honor or meaning..
The service of soldiers are met without feeling..
The leaders do it for the money in the game..
And leave the world never ever the same..
Why dont we respect them anymore they ask..
Because they fake everything wearing a mask..
Men of honour who made real conquests are dead..
Now for no reason, no meaning they spill blood..
hey dude you are really talented!!
lonely, aware, happy, beautiful, romantic.. Can you do something with that...
excellent!
heart, my, in, deep

======/======/======/======/======/======/======
I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of falling. I'm not scared of the dark, I'm scared of what's in it. I'm not afraid of love, I'm afraid of not being loved back.
no doubt u r talented dodi2all..
lets try a poem on rose,beauty,friend,color pink
dodi2all, U have a talent .... I can't put an offer to it :)
Good Luck, Man.
calculator,height,wonderful,water
True fun can never be measured..
Its not understood when just heard..
You have to be there to know how it felt..
How it looked and how it smelt..
Its a wonderful life if u really try..
Do things without asking what or why..
The tallest mountain may seem to small..
When you have a friend answering your call..
It isnt the height , the depth or any measure actual..
It is not the absolute or the factual..
Life is not added up or subtracted away..
The calculator is not to sum up your day..
My friends it is more than the sum of the parts..
It is a meeting of heads and hearts..
Life is too short to plan every move..
Sometimes you have to dance to any groove
potatoes, chiken, bread, tomatoe, lettuce and soft drink
I was once an amateur chef..
What i mean is i can cook for self..
My eggs have become legendary fare..
On Saturdays when for breakfast we care..
Anybody can toast bread and make eggs you say..
But then you havent seen my special way..
Three guys eat a dozen eggs i make..
Then they have their tea with cake..
My chicken also is truly no less..
The spices i add a secret mess..
My potato salad has no real foe..
Even my canadian girlfriend has a go..
Whenever you are in doubt i learnt..
Garlic and ginger can do the trick..
Garlic pinches taste buds to a halt..
And ginger helps you reduce your salt..
The funny thing is somehow i just cant..
Make a drink that anyone can stand..
So soft drinks like pepsi have to do..
And for others theres leftover stew.. :D
maybe, hope, stupid, love, tired
Stupid , stupid , stupid am i..
desperate to have a good cry..
The emotions bottled up inside of me stay..
eating at me day by painful day..
Hope somehow dies a slow death in me..
That future i saw i now dont see..
Tired and defeated i wonder why i still look that way..
Dreaming of a face that silently went away..
Maybe someday i will get over it..
maybe someday i can without fidgeting sit..
Maybe love will find me and stay..
Maybe soon, soon some day
dodi, thanks ya buddy! i like it :)

Sunless, Sad, dead, lonely, Tree
pick your words.. you gave me sentences..
solitude, wacky, tattoo, guitar, kisses
The rock and roll scene gets to all..
While some succeed, most fall..
Across the world they pop out from nowhere..
Telling the world how they dont care..
The fans go crazy at these guys..
Yuppy kids with jeans hanging off thighs..
A tattoo and a guitar is all you need..
That and a lyrics noone can read..
Its a wacky crazy life i hear..
Theres wine women and wealth to spare..
Those kisses that they throw in the air..
Make hearts flutter of many a maiden fair..
But all good things come to an end..
Most of them end up lonely around the bend..
In the solitude of their golden years they lie..
Often in pain wishing to just die..
I got the tattoo but no guitar..
I dont have a voice or the funky car..
Guess the rebel in me must be content..
That i can afford the next months rent..
respect, wars, money, love, service...
Tarsiers, Coconuts, Floods, Poverty, Prostitution, Filex
im remembering the movie "before sunset" .. nice poems :)
-=The desire to do what you shouldn'T is the very desire that defines Humanity=-

Let's us know!

potatoes, chiken, bread, tomatoe, lettuce and soft drink...I need my poem now :)
Words: Unattainable Love Blind Pain Awake Late
Its too late now i know..
I know i have to let her go..
But my stupid heart doesnt hear..
Madly in love it knows no fear..
She has left me in ashes and dust..
But forget her i cant though i must..
On lonely night, awake i stay..
Trying to make the pain go away..
The sighs of a wound somewhere deep..
Into every waking hour do creep..
Unattainable love stories are never told..
And they remain within till we grow old..
maybe, hope, stupid, love, tired
From which deep recesses of mind do U pull out such stuff ?
Heheheheeh
U r good, MAN
dodi try mine --> solitude, wacky, tattoo, guitar, kisses
=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+
* No challenge, no fun *
dodi2all ...... What do u do for a living ?

leafless trees in Winter. Take your time
Excellent dodi, you are a gem!
dodi2all,
that's quite cool!

Unattainable
Love

Words : Garlic, donkey, sickle , pancake
The sickle swishes in the corn field..
Powerful strokes the men do weild..
But as always the questions remain..
In the end who stands to gain..
The rich and powerful have their share..
The middle man really doesnt care..
The bottom of the pyramid does its due..
But reward as always is far too few..
There are people crying for donkeys around..
For punishment true, just , fair and sound..
But the pancake eating bunch they are..
Maybe the real world is from sight too far..
I bite into sandwich every day at eight..
Pondering the wicked twists of fate..
When the ginger garlic sauce that tastes so good..
Will be affordable to the ones go without food..
Where is my poem?
I repeat...
garlic, donkey, sickle, pancake.
giggles,laugh,twinkle,bounce,joy..
Wanting something is human nature..
I keep wondering what i really want..
I have a blank canvas for a future..
But paint it in colors i just cant..
I try and figure where its heading..
What is the climax to my true story..
With a bounce will i into the sunset be walking..
Or is there for something i need to worry..
Will my eyes still forever twinkle..
Will i laugh like i do down the line..
Or will it all end as i get a wrinkle
Will i pine for a sip of wine..
Will i be the old man who gives giggles to lil girls
Or will my temper find a shorter leash
I hope wherever me life in the hurls..
I get my daily share of fish :D
Sunless, Sad, dead, lonely, Tree
That sad feeling has hit me again..
Again my heart wrenches in pain..
I try hard to keep all of it hidden..
But the cracks to my mask ever widen..
Its impossible to kill true love fully..
But being a casualty of cupid is actual folly..
Life as i knew it is forever dead..
But that just doesn't get into my head..
The darkness beckons with shady fingers..
The sunless streets only intensify my hungers..
To see that face, to hear that voice..
to die in love, whatever her weapon of choice..
I still get that lonely feeling..
When under memories of you i am reeling..
I still sit under that tree with leaves of autumn gold..
Where we made promises of being together till we were old..
jog, health, discipline, savings, progress
Funny things take my fancy every now and then..
Each idea a try to get out of my cozy den..
I guess the old trials by dad surface..
When each time with progress i try to keep pace..
The first of the lot as common was health..
A consciousness of which i had no real depth..
I tried the morning jog hoping some chicks would show..
But two days into it, my sleep said i just cant go..
Then i tried saving my well earned money..
But somehow wine tasted sweeter than honey..
I was penniless faster than usual..
And the last few days were cruel..
The rest my friends are all common yore..
There nothing that i havent tried before..
Finally i am at peace with myself..
Discipline and hard work gather dust on a shelf..
where's my poem repeat,giggles,laugh.twinkle,bounce,joy
dodi you rock
this is not a mock
Damn!
Sleep has passes, it's time for wakin
I go to the bathroom and finish wiping
Got to go to work, for i am teachning
Can't stand here wasting time and talking
Your preferences, brit, are revealed by your answer.
Wakin, wiping, teaching, talking, brit.
wiping, money, love, spend
Am I correct ?
Waking in the morning to the feeling of your fingers on my skin
Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that I’ve been
Teaching me that yesterday was something that i never thought of trying
Talking about tomorrow and the money love and time we'd have to spend
Which are the four words?
4 words
garlic, donkey, sickle, pancake.
WOW, dodi you are gifted!
thanks, loved it!! for a while we were afraid you wouldn't pop back in here :))
http://littlegirlmaui.blogspot.com/
words : italian, crazy, caress, Psychokinesis
A crazy wannabe i once was
Seeing and wanting things that pass
This is a list of things i wished
For which my heart and soul bled
First i wanted to be popeye
A fighter with spinach in his pie
Then i took the football dream
Wanted to be captain of the winning team
I also wanted my fast cars and bikes
Speed racer with his uniform and hair in spikes
Then i saw godfather and thats what it was
A mobster, a gangster with a face that suits a canvas
Psychokinesis had my attention too
and i lost sleep more than was due
I landed up in hospital as somehow i do
And then to be a doctor my mind flew
Thats what i wanted to be for a while
Then doctors ran out of style
My friends have run out of steam
And looks like i'll take it without the cream
Words: round, circle, triangle, rectangle
Love triangles i always fall in
Each lady i like is already taken
My eyes see what has already been seen
My dream girls all end up has been
I go round and round every single time
Vicious circle after vicious circle
I wonder when my tangent will break
When i can eat as well as have my cake
The funny thing is i wonder if i can take it
Trying to woo one without another angle
I wonder if i do it for the fight
Maybe thats what diminishes my sight
But of triangles and circles u have all heard
Remind me and i'll tell you of a rectangle old
But that can wait until next time
I am suddenly running out of rhyme
giggles,laugh,twinkle,bounce,joy
words : sweet, sour, salty, spicy
She was the daughter of the spice seller old
The shop where every possible spice was sold
The man was wrinkled like an old grape dry
But to see her i always stopped by
I took his wise tales, some sweet some not
But nothing i heard when a sight of her i got
She shone in the darkened house of old
The spicy queen of her kingdom, all hues of gold
The old man was bitter with age
His tales sour, often full of rage
The lady kept me visiting him again
Despite his salty tears and pain
Fool i was to not listen straight
For i never heard his final prayer coming out late
She was married before i could know
And thats when i stopped going to his show
read the rules : No names
Qatar is also a name
Al fayad is a name
Words: me, beauty, you, beast
Across the ballroom i caught her face
Her beauty left me a smiling daze
Words failed me as they seldom do
But words could never give her beauty its due
My life since then was a search for her
Like some womans craving for fur
I took to the streets on my trusted bike
My search just lacked a speaker with a mike
Then i saw her in a cafe of fame
Her effect on me just the same
I dropped to my knees and proposed
"I adore you " i said and a smile i forced
The beast that punched me stood 6 feet tall
And i remember her face before the fall
When i woke up she was gone
And my poor heart wept alone
Thank's dodi
words : faith, hope, charity & humility
Blind faith keeps me moving on and on
Like anything human i wake at dawn
With dreams of a better and brighter place
The unending, never stopping, eternal rat race
I have no humility in showing my gains
I have been places and had may pains
But listen all ye people it is all a sham
all that gold and glitter loses its glam
They say charity shows your true soul around
I say its a stupid saying going round
I am an arrogant prick that most hate
But then i am the ruler of my own fate
I hope and dream as always i have been
Of a better tomorrow, till yet unseen
I will get there someday soon
Where the scotch is old and the women swoon.. :D
Words: cure - cabinet - war - sunflower - aim
I drink my sorrow in tonight
I drink so i lose my sight
An arrow through the heart you shot
And since then its a cure i sought
The war raging in me is fierce and long
But i go along singing a song
A mask i put on like all around
I aim to fit in without a sound
A square peg in a round hole i feel i am
An elephant in a cabinet, but i dont give a damn
I have to keep that plastered smile on my face
And keep my crazy hidden never give it space
Someday i will get my free pass
I'll fly, i'll run and i'll finally dance
Wallpapered sunflower will turn bright and true
Someday i'll get what is rightfully my due
Tree
jog, health, discipline, savings
progress
very clever game, congrats indeed for the idea.
Try these:
italian
crazy
caress
Psychokinesis
very nice indeed,but i think u missed out to include the word 'black'....but it's alright! :-) bravo!and thank you! :-)
Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car. ~ Garrison Keillor
Words : Black Road eyes candy horizon
Destiny guides me on a course unseen
A road untreaded, where noone has been
The stars keep in perpetual motion
The eyes keep scanning the horizon
Any hope for an exit seems futile
The future bleak, the night always vile
But i keep going anyway i can
Every second step i stop and scan
For the sight of anything, anything at all
I find candy on the street, someones prize had its fall
I step over and keep on going
To what end theres no knowing
dodi still there?????
