Ode to Converse...blu wrote poetry(a long time ago)

OMG! I can't believe I found this. Back when I had to do an poetry project for English(a couple years back), this was one of my poems. This should tell you how horrible I was at poetry, but everyone seemed to love it. Thought I'd post just for kicks. If I find anymore I'll post them, I guess.:lol:


Ode to Converse

Converse-
inside my dark empty shoe
hides my freedom
to walk my walk
and run, run, run!

The smooth stretchy fabric
comforts my feet
protects and guards me
from the danger
that lurks ahead.
No thorns can pierce the skin
of my stone shoe
it is my shield,
my sword,
my feet’s womb.

As my feet sinks into Heaven
my socks feed on my soles
for the bottom
the end
of my wonderful Converse

Ode to Converse
my haven for relaxation
my guardian that shields me
from the worlds wrath.
no thorn can pierce its armor
for it is a slice of freedom,
in a shoeless world.


And if you don't know what Converse(Chuck Taylors) are then shame on you

Spoiler

^Those aren't mind btw.

❖ The Irish Man ❖

‘Twas once a man from Ireland
Who worked all night and day
He wore overalls and high boots
And his hair was silver gray

All the people in the village
thought him heroic for what he had done
for his story was legend
and it had to do with the sun

For many years ago
When this man of Ireland was 20
He led a band of misfits
All through the vast green country

‘Twas this man of Ireland
he used to sing all day
but now upon his journey
he’d be making the sky all gray

So once into a green field
the sun in full view
he swore and sung in gaelic
speaking all that he knew

The once the ritual was over
his misfits all confused
he told them not to worry
but rather be amused

But fearing certain death
from the change in the sky up above
his band ran away
to seek shelter in a pub

The Irish man all lonely
and the sky turning gray
he sat there on his bum
till night turned to day

But come the next morning
the sun did not arise
for the Irish man’s song
was full of endless lies

The god’s awakened that morning
angry as all could say
so they punished the Irish man
for turning the world to gray

He had made the sun vanish
making the sky all gray
but he would be remembered
especially for what he had done that day

Now Ireland all sad
with the gods angry as well
The Irish man went back home
to do nothing but dwell

to be continued

I guess try to sing it or something...comes out better but it still sucks. Again written couple years ago.:lol::lol::lol::ninja:

If you replace the words "socks" and "shoes" and maybe "feet" in the first one, it`s a world-class poem.
Still, it`s good.
