Another cameo from Ralph – but why on bad poetry day?? I would definitely give it a miss. Especially the ‘poems’ that don’t rhyme and seem to have forgotten what poetic meter means.
Today is Friday and I’m drinking water. Dave makes me laugh but the temps are gettin’ hotter. I’m refilling my cup… I think I need a break. I trip on a toy – ouch! – that was a mistake.
Mary had a little watch, she swallowed it one day. She had to take a laxative to pass the time away. The laxative, it did not work, the time it did not pass, if you want to know what time it is look up Mary’s…uncle, he has a watch

Unless it’s a bad pun. Those are okey-dokey. Encouraged, even.
Roses are red, violets are blue, I’m schizophrenic, and so am I!

There once was a man from Japan
Whose limericks never would scan
The reason was
Simply because
He tries to get absolutely everything into the last line that he possibly can

A bad poetry day
involves all types of word play.
We should all give it a try,
without considering why
the results are not okay.

How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so bad Oh,
I do think it the most unpleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!
Ralph looks like he needs a hug! LOL

How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!

Roses are red,
Fire trucks are red,
Poetry is hard,

Poor Mr. Kilmer must be spinning; line #2 of the poem has only one “as”.

Can’t top a poem that has “squirrel” in it.
