I come from Planet Poetry
My skin is sunrise red
If similes were sandwiches
You’d consider me well-fed!
Life’s whimsical and wonderful
Down here on planet Earth
With freedom to express yourself:
You don’t know what that’s worth!
I come from Planet Poetry
Words whizzing round my head
If metaphors were magazines,
You’d consider me well-read!
Life’s fantastic and it’s fleeting
On this, my blue new home
So why do you court misery,
Like fleas jump to the comb?
But I come from Planet Poetry
You can tell by my third head.
If I’d said this all in front of you,
I’d hope you say…
“well said!”
HaHa! Brilliant! 🙂

I’d had the “planet poetry” idea for a while, but didn’t know how to use it. When the word “whimsical” came up today, that gave me the rest 🙂

I’d never heard of planet poetry. What is it?

It’s a made-up place
In outer space
Where everyone speaks in rhyme
It’s a magical place
In outer space
You should visit if you have the time!

Ah, like Dr Seuss?
I’d love to visit, but… I don’t have the time today. Though I must say, it was funny for me to see that, some days, rhymes just *had to* be in my poem. Today was not one of those days 🙂

Oh I’d love to set up camp in Planet Poetry.. !! Just today, my husband was asking me to explain one of my lines and I miserably failed. We’re all so misunderstood 😛 Well said!!

I sometimes prefer the explanations of others about my lines than my own interpretation… Amazing how different they can be from what I’d had in mind!

It’s definitely “well said”, you’re a superb poet indeed. Not sure what or who the “court misery” is about, or directed to…

Thanks JL. Was just meant as a reminder from this quirky alien outsider for all of us to focus on the positive, as we have so many reasons to 🙂

And that’s a fine reminder, but there are lots of folks in pain–they don’t want to be, aren’t stubbornly wallowing in it, and have no control over whatever’s causing the pain…they’d much prefer to be “all smiley”.
