Very Bad Poetry

Welcome to the last refuge for the world's worst poetry.

It's difficult to understand how, in this age of information, poems that merely miss the mark can be tossed into the cold world to fend for themselves, only to whither and be forgotten.

James James

And as it started
instant bliss
and that's before
their first quick kiss
they lived their life
inside a bubble
but soon the bloke
he caused some trouble.
They both well knew that
what they had
was well woth saving
more good
than bad
they picniced by the riverside
discussed their issues
watched the tide
exchanged some gifts
and even cried
Got back on track
and resolved poste haste
their thing was way too good
to waste
Went to the shops
She chose the clothes
He's no idea
but knows she knows
Back to work
in just a while
but just enough
for caveman style
surprised himself
surprised Her too
and what they dig
is downright blue
