😂🤣 now I shall refresh my memory of that poem. I only ever remember that roses are red and violets are blue then I insert other stuff and laugh too.
Roses are red So many hues Oops you're dead So I'll bury you 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I loved the ones you came up with!
This is an awesome, enjoyable, lighthearted read. Some very clever rhyming. I loved these lines: 'I am well-read And you are my nightlight'. Great work!
…awkward! Hahaha 🤣😊👍
I literally laughed out loud at some of these! Funny stuff!
Hahah these were funny 🤣🤣 you are right though, not quite the same!
Roses are red My shoes are black I don’t write poetry because it would make me a hack!
Roses are red, violets are blue, I fell inside your business and now I will sue!
