In honor of the pink and red "holiday" upon us, I decided to do a poetry lesson with one of my classes today. (Also because I was too lazy to do anything else, and this is a standard lesson I've done several times. I used the "holiday" as an excuse.) While my students were plugging away, I penned a few of my own, in honor of us, and the men that have come in and out of our lives over the last year.
To not settling:
Roses are Red,
Grass is green,
Don't I deserve
To be treated like a Queen?
The Highlander:
Roses are Red,
Violets are blue,
You're so stupid,
You haven't got a clue.
The Dark Horse:
Violets are blue,
Roses are Red,
We would be better
If we just stayed in bed.
For Grayer and Conrad:
Roses are Red,
Funerals are black,
What you two have
Is really whack.
For Welsh Willy:
Roses are Red,
But some are pink,
For not calling Fen,
You really stink!
For Scarlet:
Roses are Red,
Lillies are white,
I'm only looking for
My very own knight.
I could go on and on and on...

For Fergus:
Roses are red,
Tulips are yellow.
I really should tell you,
You're not a nice fellow.
Roses are useless,
Fen, Scar, and Vi
Isn't is great
not being stuck with one guy?
