Another Quarter Please!

Another Quarter Please!


In the land of eternal happiness,
the pollution ain't all that bad.
So here I am all alone,
wishing for the life I had.

They all are together to spite me.
Oh, how I wish I had love.
The last one only lasted two weeks,
dumped him when push came to shove.

So to the future love of my life.
I write this from the heart.
When ever you finally get here,
I know we will never part!

I'll bake you some Cherry cookies
and make you a vanilla shake, too.
Even though I don't know you yet,
I wanted to say,"I love you!"

Some people wait a lifetime
for their special one to come along.
I knew I couldn't wait to meet you,
when Kelly first sang the song!

So like I tell the girl in the mirror,
I don't know who she could be.
Don't just stand there not saying a word,
I hate how you stare at me!

Speak up and tell me your intentions,
Dear Daddy I don't want you to smoke.
I wrapped your dinner in aluminum foil
but I think the microwaves broke.

Everyone was out to get me today.
I refuse to pay you the fine!
I'm sorry Sean that I hurt you again
after you had been so kind.

I feel like I'm spinning and spinning,
and no one is on my side.
I wait for my special one to come
while I put another quarter in the ride!

( this is a composition of the works of Shannon W.)

Hello, you wrote this for me a while ago. When you had wrote this for me I was still beginning to understand how I write. I had noticed that I had come a LONG way from when I started here at PnP. Thanks to you and many others I have increased the "something" (lol) of my writing. I have actually learned to rhyme (and actually like) my poems. I have written a bunch of new ones. Please check them out and tell me what you think.

Thanks,
Shannon

I am so glad you added the explanation at the end...about half way through the poem, I was really beginning to wonder if you taking 'something', or if you had suffered a head injury lately...it all makes perfect sense now after I went and checked out some of her poems. This is very good. You summarized each one very wittily, indeed.
