One of my favorites

Here is a poem that I wrote, its rich in fun sounds, deeper meaning and metaphors.

"Poem" by C.R. Marquez

Fuzzy Lumpkins chased the happiness
around the Gnarled Oak chasing its tattered youth

Only to find that happyness had eluded his grasp
like the concrete had fooled the abstract


I have not decided if I am going to spell happiness the traditional way both times or to keep it as is.

here is also my current favorite poem

"We Real Cool" by Gwendolyn Brooks

We real cool. We
Left School. We

Lurk late. We
Strike Straight. We

Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We

Jazz June. We
Die soon.
