Today we decided we would have a poetry writing competition.
Every one had to make their own rendition,
Of "There once was a fly."
Here the poems lie.
Vote for which one you like the best.
We give our poems to your test.
The losers will have to rhyme
for one day whenever they see the winner at any time.
ENJOY!
1. There once was a fly.
That knew this guy,
and met him at a farm
with so many flies on his forearm
that he could fly so high up in the sky he could cry.
2. There once was a fly.
His name is guy.
He sat on a pie.
He's saying goodbye.
3. There once was a fly.
Actually, that's a lie.
He first was a walk -
A walk that could talk.
But he can't talk anymore,
So I'll tell his folklore.
He couldn't fly in the bright blue sky.
In fact, he was scared of places high.
So, he walked around on the ground,
Eating whatever he found,
Talking to all he would meet,
Even to the farmer Pete.
Until one fateful day...
It might have been in May,
He saw with his thousand eyes,
Something more beautiful than a million cow pies.
Her name was Shannon.
Her wings sparkled and shone in the sun.
Her every move was stunning,
And before he knew it he was running.
He wanted to yell endless - ly,
But for the first time he was speechless.
But, alas, she was on a ledge,
Out of reach brought tears to his eyes' edge.
He stopped about to cry,
To forever rot walking to die.
But, then - if flies could smile,
Shannon gazed hopefully down in this style.
All of a sudden he started to shake,
From a deep sleep came his wings awake,
He rose from the ground
Not making a sound.
Keeping his eyes on her,
He did not fear.
And thus once a walk, now a fly forever more,
She radiated cure to heal his every sore.
Wing with wing together they beat.
His silence was music so sweet.
A walk now a fly,
And a honeymoon at the pig-stie.
4. There once was a fly.
He flew so high.
Until the people screamed bye bye!
Then a guy caught the fly,
So he couldn't fly high.
The fly told the guy to go to a pig-stie,
But the guy ate pie with rye.
That's the end! bye bye!
