My Poetry

I dabble in things. I’m what I call a “hobby hopper”. So, for a while, I dabbled in poetry. (I still, on rare occasions, tackle something.) I joined a poetry group with three others. They were really wonderful writers. Me? Well, like I said, I dabbled.

Dabble is a very silly word if you use it more than once.

But in any case, all the links are to my poetry. Some are serious. Some are not. I suspect you’ll be able to tell the difference!

In the past a number of hits have come from people who are searching for “poems of apology”. They land on my site because of one silly apology poem I wrote to my poetry group for not writing poems! I felt bad disappointing those poor people who needed a serious apology poem! Well, sort of.

Anyway, here’s one poem that maybe comes close to what some may want:

Words

My sarcasm bites.
(Does she know I’m only joking?)
I see hurt in her eyes.
I really was just hoping
She would see
That all the cuts,
All the gibes,
Are merely due
To insecurity.

And maybe I’ll write a better one later.

In the mean time, if you want some more light-hearted apology poems give these a go:

Lie #1

I’m sorry that I lied to you
It wasn’t very nice to do.
But still it was creative
So let it go, and please forgive.

Lie #2

I’m very sorry that I lied
But just be glad that no one died.

Lie #3

The lying that I did was wrong
I should be honest all day long.
Of course I spoke the lie at night
I guess that makes the lie all right!

Please, if you use any of these above, or the poems you find in the sidebar, I appreciate being asked. As amateur as these poems are, they are my work and are still under copyright. Thanks!
