PreTeena by Allison Barrows for December 15, 2009

Teena, if you’re going to be lazy Your mind will go hazy People will think you’re crazy.

“There was a pre-teen from New Hampshire…”

“There once was a girl named Teena Whose sister was ugly and mean-a. They fought all the time Without reason or rhyme Over which was the real beauty queen-a.”

It’s really not that hard Teena. Just don’t ask Jeri for help!

Love you four poets.

Rime time.

sorry

Hope Teena doesn’t come to a line that will end with “orange.” There are no words that rhyme with that.

Well, there’s “door hinge” which I saw and heard on TEENICK’s “Drake and Josh” (Drake was writing a song and had that trouble; Josh ran out of the room over something exciting and bruised his head by running into the… well, you know).

Ode to Myself, by Jeri Keene

I wondered loudly to the crowd That gathers ‘round when I appear “You’re obviously pretty wowed - I’m not sure I should let you near.” So they stepped back to give me room Afraid I’d leave them in their gloom.

Because, you see, they idolize my every move, each breath I take, my perfect hair, my gorgeous eyes. This sort of thing you just can’t fake. It only takes a single glance from me to make my minions dance.

I could go on, it isn’t hard. Unseemly, maybe some would say (no doubt some jealous tub of lard - who’d care what she thought, anyway?). Trust me, I know you’ll never see A thing as great as me, me, me!

(I like Destiny23’s poem - Allison Barrows)

That’s awesome, Allison! Glad to see you still hanging around here! :) Love the reruns; miss reading Teena’s new adventures.
