“Oh flowery fluffy love muffin, how doth thy……” *SNORE*. Don’t worry I find that kind of poetry really boring too. But I have good news! There are as many types of poetry as there are types of snack hidden under your bed. Let’s look at some examples of fun poetry!

Anonymous (I love you)

“I love you, I love you,

I love you divine,

Please give me your bubble gum,

You’re sitting on mine” –

  Miriam Chaikin (I hate Harry)

“I hate Harry like… like.. OOO!

I hate Harry like … GEE!

I hate Harry like – poison.

I hate! Hate! Hate! HAR-RY!

 

Rat! Dope! Skunk! Bum! Liar!

Dumber than the dumbest flea!

BOY! … do I hate Harry,

I hate him the most that can be.

 

I hate him a hundred, thousand, million,

Doubled, and multiplied by three,

A skillion, trillion, zillion more times

Than Harry, the rat, hates me” 

Arnold Spilka - I saw a little girl

“I saw a Little Girl I hate

And kicked her with my toes.

She turned

And smiled

And KISSED me!

Then she punched me in the nose.”

So be careful who you kick with your toes. You might get a big surprise and a sore nose.
