Your Poem:
I am
I am a determined guy who likes computers
I wonder if I ever will have a good job
I hear the buzz of interacting PC's
I see the sonic waves of the Internet
I want to have a good job so I can pay for holidays for my family
I am a determined guy who likes computers
I pretend that my parents are in danger and I save them
I feel that I am a good mathematician
I touch the keyboard
I worry that I won't be well off when I'm older
I cry if I don't do well
I am a determined guy who likes computers
I understand the workings of Q'basic
I say that the world will get better
I dream about being a multimillionaire
I try to do my best
I hope to be a good friend
I am a determined guy who likes computers

Your Poem:
A Time to Talk
When a friend calls me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don't stand still and look around
On all the hills I haven't hoed,
And shout from where I am, "What is it?"
No, not as there is a time to talk.
I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground,
Blade-end up and five feet tall,
And plod: I go up to the stone wall
For a friendly visit.

Safari Smells
The man on the corner near Mr Mangoo has told both my parents he's starting a zoo While he named all the creatures he wanted to keep my mum screwed her nose up a bit like a sheep.My dad said quite calmly and what of a smell?The man looked dumbfounded The odour-yes well,the rhino is house trained the lion's quite clean and most of the penguins.... they'll live in the stream. So if by some offchance there is a bouquet Let's all hope the wind isn't blowing our way.

And they'd say
That's not very funny.'

Your Poem:
Piano
Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me; Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she sings.
In spite of myself, the insidious mastery of song Betrays me back, till the heart of me weeps to belong To the old Sunday evenings at home, with winter outside And hymns in the cosy parlour, the twinkling piano our guide.

Your Poem:
Tall Story
I went to the theatre to cheer myself up,
I was hoping to have a few laughs.
But I found,don't you know,
The entire front row,
Had been booked by a bunch of giraffes!
