Violet myrtle evergreens,
Marry daytime skies,
As satin moods and siren soothes
Thrive on rum and rye

Laurels grace their presence
With lace upon their reef,
While placed with nowhere of sense;
Marred by other leaves

Despite the feud of jealousy
It’s all a grand of time
With a dancing hand and ditty,
While drinking down a lime

The thistledown of thistles
Make up the gowns of silk;
While Murmuring sweet nothings,
Imbibing honeysuckle’s milk

As night begins to lay;
Only the Laurels noticed,
Daytime start to slip away,
As the Myrtles stayed unnoticed





i entered this poem in a contest online a while ago and today in the mail i got a medal for it lol. i asked my mom if she wanted to see it so i logged onto sillygoth.com and showed her. she was like "'YOU DIDNT WRITE THAT WHAT DOES IMBIBELING MEAN? HMM HMM?" and i told her it was "imbibing" and that it meant drink. then she looked it up in the dictionary, convinced it wasnt a word-when she found it the deffinition said "to drink"

lol..looking back on that site i have over 50 poems..my mom said i should publish a poetry book xD i think im gonna do it
