The Poet's Corner

[Prissy]

Prissy - I love it! Way to think up all those "ay" words. :D

Greg, if you like "ay" words that rhyme with Clay, how about this poem I wrote when I reached 300 posts!

[color=cornflowerblue]Three Hundred Posts

Three hundred posts I've reached today
With you, my friends, who all love Clay!
It's here we get to have our say
And no one cares, there is no pay!

His family's love did pave "The Way"
For such a special guy, our Clay!
A mother's care was there from Faye.
Let's not forget, dear father, Ray

Just one more thing, please, if I may,
Claymaniacs is where I'll stay.
It's so much fun to post and "play,"
And no one can tear me away!

I'll stop here now, this lovely day
I've no more words to rhyme with Clay!

Prissy - *blink* Whhooaaa that just blew my mind. :P

[claytonsmyccf]

Prissy, debi, and greg forgot to say love your poems

These two I ended up putting in poetry contests. Their both at poetry.com along with the other one I posted. Their like my lil babies so I don't let them out much!

Love
listening to what others say
even if you don't want to do something their way
thinking about them all the time
it seems like their always on your mind
through you try to get away
your always heading their way
all these things have one thing in common athing called
LOVE

Not So Easy Go
easy come easy go,
does everything apply just like so,
your friend diesdo you let it go,
easy come easy go,
don't think it applys to everything like so.

Kimmey,

I loved your poems.  Thanks for sharing and keep writing!!

Stellium inspired the following which is in the TV GUIDE Thread in Clay Daily.

I hardly recognize our very serious and mature man.  

I do miss the funny boy so full of joy.

Your words inspire:

We miss our cute and funny boy,
Who always was so full of joy.

With just a wink, he could be coy.
Some thought he made a great boy toy!

But now our boy is more a man,
Which really should delight each fan!

The age difference when he began
With us and him; a shorter span!

Kimmey - Your peoms are beautiful!  I can see why they mean a lot to you.  I appreciate you sharing them with us.  Please keep writing!  You're good!

Prissy - I love it!  You know, I always say that your probably my biggest fan, but did you know that I'm yours as well?  You know those fun, uplifting poetry books you can buy at Barnes & Noble ... you know, the subjects range in anything from mothers and daughters to coping with stress by seeing the humor in it all.  YOU should write and publish those, Prissy.  I'd be first in line to buy many copies and share with my friends and family.


I love what Stellium said to inspire your latest poem.  She truly has a powerful way with words.

Thanks Lady C and Prissy writing runs in my family. Friedrich von Schiller is one of my ancestors! I noticed that me and him are alike we both have lots of drama in our work. I infact just read he was chased out of somewhere because of his writings . Didn't find out about it until I started writing and my grandmother showed me this book of his works!

Might have some new poems this week!

[claytonsmyccf]

Let...

Let there be love,
Let there be hope,
'Cause no one knows if tomorrow will ever come.

Let no tears fall,
Let all eyes look above,
For tears bring nothing but sadness.

Let all eyes look above to God,
For that is where things are fixed.

[Prissy]

Ah, shucks, LadyC!

I just write what "jumps" out of me!!  Some are better than others, but very seldom do I rework a poem.  Occasionally,  I go back and change a few words.  I just write for fun!

Kimmy,

You have some wonderful thoughts that you express so well.  Thanks for sharing with us.

In the  EARS  thread in Clay Daily, Clara challenged me to find current celebrities with protruding ears.  All I could find were some from the past.

Clara said:

I regret to inform you that given examples have proven unacceptable. Please, provide further evidence of big-eared thudworthy specimens. I guarantee that any effort on your part will be duly appreciated.

Ah, Clara, I concede defeat,
Our Clay, indeed, is quite unique.

I've  found that no one else out there
Still has his own  protruding ears.

Prince Charles, Doogie, Mr. Spock;
With you, these three just held no stock!

Now Bing and Frank,  even Clark, too,
Have also been dismissed by you.

For now, our  Clay shall stand alone
And proudly let his ears be shown!

Yaaaaay, a poet's corner!!!    Here's my latest poem (yes, it's PG, don't worry-lol!)

Verdant Pools

Nothing could be compared
To the way he made her feel
When he got that amorous look
In those eternal verdant pools
Took her in his arms
Holding her close
And whispered those three words
With a soft southern twang
Before he kissed her lips
Expressing his passionate love for her

[Prissy]

SINCE IT'S ALMOST CELLCERT TIME AGAIN, I THOUGHT I WOULD POST MY CELLCERT POEM:

CELLCERT TIME

It's Cellcert Time! Are you all set?
And ready with your Internet?
A "Claying" is about to start.
So please join in and play a part!

You picture posters in full force
Post "Claycandy." We like your source!
The funny things some of you say
Give us the best laughs of our day!

You lurkers are quite welcome, too,
And "pop-ins," we say "Hi," to you.
But best of all, our cellcert hosts,
You are the ones we love the most!

Turn on that PC; grab a chair.
Our Clay will soon be on the "air."
To all who will participate,
You make this a most special "date."

Yukino love your stuff.

Prissy always read your stuff. Haven't found any one of them I did not like.

Haven't any time for my own writing lately so nothin new from me


~*~Kimmy Aiken loves Mr. Clayton Aiken~*~

[yukino]

Thanks everybody who has said nice things about my poems-I'm very pleased    Here's another one-this one's more cutesy and humorous. Enjoy!!!
Adorkable

When I look into your eyes
I see more than a freckle-faced southerner
With rather large ears
I see a delightfully goofy man
That was once called Gonzo
Whose soul is as beautiful as his voice
And has a heart the size of Russia
A man who has done so much for a cause
That cannot help itself
He is the answer to all of my dreams
The one I want to hold in my arms forever
And wake up in the morning to
Until the end of my days

~*~IS IT ME?~*~

The darkness inside me,
Is like a war from our land,
With constant battling,
My heart heavy, like sand.

Why can't she trust me,
I have nothing to hide,
How can she get to know me,
When she hasn't even tried.

She doens't know,
What's on my mind,
Or just how much,
She's killing me inside.

I'm drowning in the pain,
I'm suffocating is shame,
Should I hide in the shadows,
And just take the pain?

I don't understand,
Why this is happening,
When all of my life,
I've been preventing these things.

My soul is wearing away,
And I'm beaing beaten up,
It's hard not to worry,
This is really, really tough.

Monica - Your poem is full of anguish and  frustration, which comes through clearly in your words.  It's beautifully written, sad though it is, and I think that it's something a lot of people can relate to.  You've put into words what many people have trouble expressing.  You're definitely not alone, sweetheart.  I'm proud of you for finding such a creative outlet.  I write, too, and have found solace in it.  I hope you do as well.

Love,
Kris

My latest attempt at free expression and admiration for the way HE moves!  LOL

 



THE JUKEBOX MOVES

Clay with this Jukebox Tour
You’ve given us new,
You’ve given us “Back for More”,

Clay when we think we’re just about to bust
with “Great Balls of Fire”
You’ve given us your hip thrust.

Clay dressed up in choir gowns
With “When Doves Cry”,
You’ve given us the Angela shimmy down.

And lastly my fave, Mr. Shakenaiken
With “Heartbreak Hotel”
You’ve given us a new gyration.

Yay Go Monica Prissy and Jayne

Jayne welcome

No inspiration... nothin to post. Reading all ya all stuff. Really good!

[claytonsmyccf]

New one inspiration really didn't hit. Just was listening to 1000 days and my heart just sent the words to my head, which sent them to my hands, which typed them into my blog at the OFC.

Just thinking I'm seeing Clay in 21 days

My heart is already beating fast,
My eyes already filled with tears,
I've lost count of how many years,
I've waited for this time.

I remember the days so long ago,
I would sit and wait,
Loved so much to hear you sing.

Years went by,
I lost hope,
But then you came back,

This time all be there,
There singing right along.

[yukino]

Nothin' new for me this time... Prissy- I love your poem about getting the mammogram and rescuing the Clay pics-it's so funny! LadyC-where did u get the most recent pic of Clay for your profile? It's beautiful!

[hotwaxonclay]

Hey guys great stuff here!! I don't know why but poems are weird with me...I read them and start feeling whatever the poem is lol...finally I came here and read through all of the stuff...VERY AWESOME!!!

I hardly EVER get poetry...I mean try as I may...I can never get it right...but I have one that I wrote a while ago...I've put it so its like a song...so if I ever ecome a singer I have one piece to call my own hehe.

Fighting My Fantasy
Why am I feeling of this
just for you?
Seeing you makes,
My inside churn,
My knees go weak
Even turn red in the cheeks

I don't even know you
So how can this be?
When I am pretty sure,
You don't know me
I try to forget you
Make your face go away
But you've got a hold of me

(This would be the chorus, put here and in between the first two phrses...then after the last one)
You haunt my dreams
Each and every night
Your face smiling sweet
Or your laugh floating in
Why do I feel ths for you?
Why can't I stop?

I know I'll never have you
That you are my fantasy
I want to reach out and feel you here
But I know that is too much
I hurt when I see you
I hurt when I don't
I'm humliated around you
But I know it's you I need.
