135. Beware The Creme Egg Poem by Jaden Knight

This is really original and amusing. I hope this was a real dream :) . Just a suggestion: use punctuation so you know your readers are reading it at the same pace and rhythm as you do.

was this REALLY a dream, or a daydream, or just a fruitful imagination? ? whatever it was, you nailed it/got it just right! thanks for sharing the fruit. please pass me a slice of the creme egg. oh, i see i missed the poet's note the first time around. it WAS a dream. what was so crazy about it? to MyPoemList. i find that the verbs lie and lay are often confused by people (does that statement make sense?) . it is no big deal, as i assume most people will still understand what is being said, BUT if you want to speak/write the way i was probably taught when in english class years (and years) ago, here is some guidance from a google site. there also may be a little humor below, for people who aren't too prudish. : - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Lie is an intransitive verb (one that does not take an object) , meaning to recline. Its principal parts are lie (base form) , lay (past tense) , lain (past participal) , and lying (present participle) . [Lie meaning to tell an untruth uses lied for both the past tense and past participle, with lying as the present participle.] Lay is a transitive verb (one that takes an object) , meaning to put or to place. Its principal parts are lay (base form) , laid (past tense) , laid (past participle) , and laying (present participle) . The two words have different meanings and are not interchangeable. Although lay also serves as the past tense of lie (to recline) – as in, He lay down for a nap an hour ago – lay (or laying) may not otherwise be used to denote reclining. It is not correct to say or write, I will lay down for nap or He is laying down for a nap. The misuse of lay or laying in the sense of to recline (which requires lie or lying) is the most common error involving the confusion of these two words. ] Once you lay (put or place) a book on the desk, it is lying (reclining, resting) there, not laying there. ] When you go to Bermuda for your vacation, you spend your time lying (not laying) on the beach (unless, of course, you are engaged in sexual activity and are, in the vernacular, laying someone on the beach) . ] You lie down on the sofa to watch TV and spend the entire evening lying there; you do not lay down on the sofa to watch TV and spend the entire evening laying there. ] If you see something lying on the ground, it is just resting there; if you see something laying on the ground, it must be doing something else, such as laying eggs. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - the rhyming (and humor, and characterization of the interpersonal relationship between man and creme egg) were fantastic aka GREAT. among the stanzas i particularly enjoyed was this one: With ringing voice it cried “You humans have made me for a lie you will not win you have no right you will not dine on me tonight”....................thanks for sharing. this poem reminds me of two i wrote, one of which is: Alien's Oyster-Feast........ [Fantasy; Humor? ; Alien Invasion? ; Personal] reviewed 1/8/2014..................from a daydream/imagination. bri :)

Next time, I am totally fighting my food. I love your poem and your crazy dreams of yours.

Seeing a dream and then put on paper through the ink of mind is a tough job and you did...I read all must read thank you dear lovely
