Eleven Poem Writing Styles And A Dog's Dinner Poem by Shaun Cronick

Eleven Poem Writing Styles And A Dog's Dinner

Rating: 5.0


I'm pretty fortunate sometimes,
When it comes to writing poetry.
I can write in eleven poem writing styles,
And they are...

1. Crap.
2. Short.
3. Short and punchy.
4. Short and punchy and crap.
5. Medium.
6. Medium and crap.
7. Long.
8. Long-winded.
9. Long-winded truly epic crap.
10. My, who the bloody hell am I kidding poem style.(also crap)
And last but not least...
11. My dog's dinner of a poem style.

I often write in my dog's dinner of a poem style,
Which any sensible, classy, poetry reading, clever canine,
Wouldn't dare sniff at.
Let alone read.
Even after being poetry starved for two weeks.
And I don't care how educated, devilishly smart,
Or snobbishly poetry refined,
Old smarty pants Fido thinks he is,
He still barks at the bloody moon.

What a wonderfully lighthearted piece of humour this is Shaun. And I love how self deprecating you are when in reality you have a wonderful talent to write in one of the most succinctly, open ways possible..sounds a contradiction in terms but it really isn’t my friend..you have many ways of writing..and all of them a joy! Thank you for always keeping a smile on my face! Your friend Lodigiana x

Very amusing poem Shaun... I'm still lauging out loud at this one! I really like the reference to Fido...' He still barks at the moon! '...really great! It's definitely a 'flipping heck Fido who do you think you are? ' inspired five from me.
