Poetry for FUN!

[Duddahs]

There once was a little girl,

Who had a curly little curl.

She would play with it by day,

And was often heard to say,

If my head was an Oyster,

My curl would be the Pearl.

[Duddahs]

There was a very old man,

With a heart of gold.

He made sure that the boy grew up not a fan,

of himself or grow up too bold.

With a glint in his eyes,

And a wink of its lid,

Did he continue to protect the boy with spies,

who often had trouble staying hid.

He loved life for sure

but he loved love even more

He searched the world for evils cure,

And accepted whatever pains were in store.

For he was the one that we love,

His very existence was one we did cherish,

For his being was that of the peaceful Dove,

And for this forever will we be saddened how he did perish.

He was but one of many in a line,

To do more than to just sit back,

And say that the Dark Lord was just fine.

What he did was put that nasty piece of work once and for all into the sack.

Good night Sweet Prince...

Farewell Albus Dumbledore.

There was never one before or since,

That we loved more or was more adored.

Thats a beautiful poem, I really enjoyed that.

[Duddahs]

Thanks so much for the sentiment...

I do hope a little birdy will post a new thread about limericks.. I love reading those even if I can not seem to write them.

[misscharlotte]

Yeah... I always love reading your poems..

Oh and I hope the birdie does sing.

[Duddahs]

Why thank you! I do hope you will continue to enjoy them too!

The Ghosts Song

He was a pest,

Like no other pest.

He was a bore,

Like no other little bore.

He was neither here,

Nor was he there.

But let me tell you,

To the rest of us we could not care.

He floated along

And thought he was the king,

Singing his idiotic songs

And tossing at random any old thing.

But alas one day it came his way,

When he had met his match.

When the others were there to say,

This space is no longer your patch.

So off he was banned,

For no one cared to care

Now no more are we to have to stand,

For the Poltergeist who's ignorance he did constantly bare.

[Duddahs]

He was short,

shorter than he was tall.

He stood on the books,

for his classroom to see all.

His voice did squeak,

And his face sure did change.

For every time he did speak,

he showed his true Charming range.

With a Swish and a Flick

the feather would fly.

He was our favorite miniature pick,

Yes, he was one heck of a Big Guy....

YOU DA MAN!

Love this! Flitwick is one of my favorite teachers.

Here's a Harry Potter Haiku. I like to think of these sometimes for fun.

They call me Loony-
But I'll never give up hope-
I'll find that Snorkak!

[Duddahs]

Oh so soft and Fluffy,

that is how my life began.

Then living in a box so stuffy,

eating things only loved by those vegan.

My egg was once hidden,

In a pocket of a traveler from afar.

In a poker game my host used I as he was a bidden,

And then upon his loss I became the star.

Oh that nasty little boy who lied through his teeth,

blackmailed my daddy,

Way down in the dungeons beneath.

I ran for the forest with legs all on the floor,

Now you can see what my wife and I have produced,

Babies and so many more.

*itches and scratches*

[Duddahs]

Hidden away in a cave far below,

Lest no one discover me until his heir did again show.

For I am the thing that Legends are so named,

But a lumbering oaf was a decoy and easily framed.

My passage was hidden so deep and so well,

That it took one who spoke my tongue for my entrance to tell.

Way down deep it slithered and it slid,

For a Century plus it was his home that he had hid.

Through the pipes both day and night,

My stare gave one poor Mudblood a bloody good fright.

She died on the spot and so it was said,

That this Moaning little girl had somehow turned up dead.

They knew not from where or from whom it had been let loose,

But it got to the girl and was quicker than a noose.

My secrets lay buried by the founder himself,

But now it be known by more than just the house elves.

It was vanquished it was killed, its blood did so flow,

Now my secret is no secret of the chamber you all know.

This is great, a really good one with Halloween coming too-kind of spooky.

[Duddahs]

Oh I am furry,

more furry than you can believe.

You will not find me,

by looking into a Pensieve.

I come in blue and purple and pink,

I can be your best friend don't you think?

Both Fred and George were kind to me,

by at last I have found my true love to be Ginny.

[fangsfan1]

This is cool-like a riddle inside a poem-the pygmy puff!

[Duddahs]

How the Pumpkins float,

How they all grin with fierce firey smiles I note.

They are joined by bats and a shiny full moon,

you better beware for the little ones will be here soon.

For their booty they will be in search,

like bird of prey that have quickly left their perch.

They will descend upon your stoop,

and you had better give them something good,

if not, be prepared for your car to be bombed with dragon poop!

After-all it is their night to run free,

you watch, yes and I am sure you will agree.

That those little witches and wizards and ghouls to be,

are the most wonderful things in the world you will ever want to see.

[fangsfan1]

Love Halloween, this makes me excited for Sunday!
Oh my, I have an image in my mind of that car now, imagine how big dragon poop must be?

So, we all line up one by one,

There will be no light,

There will be no sun.

It is our special time of year,

We are waxed and shaped,

and tapered to perfection you hear?

We jostle in line,

For we all wish to be first,

To be the one to be found who's cast is the worst!

We are short or we could be tall,

Some of us are scented,

Some of us not at all,

Yes we all nudge to be first inside,

For when the ghoulies and girlies come,

There will be no where left to hide.

For we are the Candles who's fire will transform into great fun.

That Jack-O-Lanterns most frighting of Devilish a grin

Oh yes and watch those little ones giggle and then run.

To not pick the best one of us would be a real sin

Pick me, pick me, OH YIPPEE, I DID WIN!.

I wondered how your love of creating riddles was going to come about since we did not set up that thread here... or perhaps yet. So now I see you are spreading it around in different places with one of them being here.

Now I have rhyme in my head.With thoughts of subjects I'd love to add to this thread. I too love the Halloween theme you have going here... I"m getting excited for that night now that it's near.
