For Kira -- Who Just Built Me a Poetry Corner to Play In !!!!!

I can write a limerick!
I can write a sonnet.
I can write a song of love
And put a new spin on it.

I can Haiku Japanese.
I can psalter Hebrew.
I can Frost a two-forked road
And Shakespeare thee till ye do.

I can play with words all day,
Till Doctor Seuss eats french fries.
I can make my muse skip rope
Until "Hot Peppers!" he cries.

I can hang with logophiles.
Now we'll amuse each other!
"Get your nose out of that book!
Go play outside!" said mother.

Okay, I'll swing and sing me songs
And dream in words that rhyme.
Some day there's gonna be a place
To play with words on line!
