Ode To A Chatroom by Marie Lehmkuhl
One day I decided to get on the net,
I thought a chat room would be my best bet.
I saw names and words come up from where
I knew not.
I soon took a chance and had a nice thought,
Could I do this, it looked really neat.
I saw names on the screen that started with sweet,
sweet smiles, Jo, and Smokey were there too,
And then I saw it, "Oh, yes, we're talking to you,
come on in and chat for awhile. "
And when I did I started to smile.
I saw Chuckie and Robbie and soon I was friends
with quite a few people by the days end.
And after awhile they called me their friend.
Sometimes I come in and my friends are not there,
But I'll go back again because I know that they care.
Some live in the states and some do not,
But they always know when I need to talk.
I am so glad I took the leap and went into the
chat room where friends are so neat.

| Good, its bright and has a nice use of ryming I used that style on a few of my pieces. It also has a nice flow to it even at the end that some poems I read lack. 3/5 good job. ((forgive spelling errors if any have a way with words, but not with spelling them. Also I relise that this is not a critique as it says above but I know I like to have some input on my works so I hope you dont mind)) - Nate | |
