So, below you will find my attempt at a "book spine poem" - just read the titles (not the authors' names) from top to bottom. Fun, huh? Give it a try!
I managed to quickly put two of them together this afternoon, but couldn't take photos until I charged up the old battery.....the camera's, not mine. Although, mine is still dragging a bit. I've got to get out tomorrow and start my walking regimen again. That usually helps.
Anyway, here they are. (These are two separate "poems", but I couldn't get the two photos very far apart.)
How did I do, Oh Wondrous Miss Cathy C.?
I now challenge other blog buddies to do the same!

You may not be a poet, but you sure are fun! And if people enjoy your poems, doesn't that make you a poet? I'm going to try that book spine thing. Looks fun!
ReplyDeleteWriting a poem
ReplyDeleteis harder than
fitting into last
year's swimming suit
where the spandex melted
two sizes smaller
from an accidental
sizzling journey
in the dryer.
That does sound like a fun way to create a poem. Thanks Becky. And K9friend, I can relate :-)
ReplyDeleteI think you did swell, Becky!
ReplyDeleteMy oldest son is one of those poets who writes lovely lyrical lines-and after I read them, I say, "Huh?"
Whereas book spine poems, I kinda get :-)
Y'all have fun!
I love these! My bookshelves are packed right now, so I should be able to come up with something. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Everyone! Thanks! When I said I'm Not a Poet, though, I meant my illustrious poems at the end at the end of this post! Bleah! :o
ReplyDeleteHi Becky,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up about my post - I fixed it. These little poems are just like the ones I make up for my kids all the time! Funny and zany and they love them.
Smiles and happy Sunday to you!
If I tried this, I would probably wind up with something that reads like a history book.
ReplyDeleteHi Walt! Well, you don't have to use your entire library, ya know! :)
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you do it, and I'll be sure to check it out!
Thanks for stopping by!
Oh, hey Julia! Sorry, I missed commenting back at ya! I'm glad you got your post fixed. These blogs sometimes have a mind of their own, don't they? Glad you liked my poems, too. My husband and I love to make up "Roses are red.dot.dot.dot" poems! The goofier the better, and just to entertain ourselves! :o
