Think I will write a comedy poem today
Think I will write a really funny poem today.
So firstly, I got to decide what it is I want to say.
I want the people that read it to roar with laughter.
A poem that they will remember for days after.
But the truth is,writting funny poetry,is harder than it seems.
Line after comedy line filling a page,happens only in my dreams.
When you meet me in person,Im actually a very funny guy.
Friends have laughed so hard at my jokes,they started to cry.
But with pen in my hand,it is hard to find those zingers.
The killer one liners,the nuggets,the real winners.
An English poet called Pam Ayres,is so darn funny.
She is able to sell her poems for actual money.
Mine on the overhand,I don’t think I could even give them away.
Let alone get people to put their hands in their pockets to pay.
Practice makes perfect, no doubt Mrs Ayres would say.
So till l finish this funny poem,there is no time to play.
I have poetry to write,so I will bid you adieu.
Poems don’t write themselves,so I have work to do
