I wrote this poem back in 2011, a friend challenged me to write a poem that wasn’t dark, gory, graphic or depressing so I came up with this…Highly influenced by one of my favourite childhood authors/poets, Shell Silverstein.
THE DUOCORNESUS
I saw the Duocornesus!!!
A horse with two horns and wings!
I swear,I swear I tell you the truth,
How could I possibly make up this thing?
Bright blue eyes that smiled at you,
Wing span of a million feet long!
Pink and blue stripes along her back,
She danced and sang her song,
One silver horn in the middle of her head,
And another gold one just above,
She kicked up the sand as she danced away,
And the sand pellots spelled”love”,
Her heavenly voice returned flowers to life,
All spang forward,volcanoes blew up,
Now the villiage is gone, but I swear!
HOW CAN I MAKE THIS STUFF UP???
