Winning Poems - Competition no 33: Write a poem using rhymes with a given word? Remember Me by Spades Master I hope someone remembers me when I die Fighting with honor, sheer pride in my eyes I joined the Corps, to be all I can be I lay down my life, so that others live free I’m a simple man, just a regular guy For love of country, didn’t have to ask why I followed my calling, to protect and serve A peaceful nation, is what we deserve Just pin my medals, across my chest Please tell my mama, I did my best Don’t worry ‘bout me, there’s no need to cry I’m now one with God, there’s no goodbye Current poetry writing competition Competition no 35 - Write a poem from the viewpoint of an animal (#5556371) Poem
Posted by squirly138 on 28 Nov 2023 at 10:03AM To My Rescue Dog........... There's no need to flinch when I raise my hand No need to cower each time I stand No need to run when I come near No need to tremble- I see your fear You can sleep with both eyes shut, Don't need to jump when you wake up. Your food is yours to eat in peace No need to fight to keep your feast You don't have to lie upon a hard floor The beds and sofas are yours to explore Don't need to sit out in the rain The house is your shelter, your new domain. I can not erase the memories and fears I can't compensate for the wasted years All I have is what you see But I give it all and I give you me. I give you these arms to comfort and hold I give you this voice for the joys you'll be told I give you my heart and abundance of love I give you my soul and I hope it's enough *Author unknown
