Making up poems
Davy: Hey fellas, did you get here alright? The weather outside is just nasty
John: I still have snow in my hair
Peter: It's even in my boots
Mike: Well did you bring an extra pair of shoes with you Pete?
Peter: Nobody told me to, I didn't think I'd need to
Paul: He can borrow a pair of mine, I have tons of shoes backstage
John: I don't think the public needed to hear that Macca
Paul: I regret nothing
George: Anyway, what's on the agenda for today lads?
Micky: The audience requested that we do something artistic?
John: We're literally musicians, we can just sing a song
Mike: I think they want something else, something we've never really done
Ringo: Reciting poems maybe?
Davy: That's a good idea, anybody know any?
Paul: I have a better idea, let's make some up!
Micky: Uhh, alright
Peter: That should be interesting, how long do we get to prepare?
George: Let's say we get 5 minutes to think, then we'll present them
John: What is this a poetry slam? This idea is ridiculous
Ringo: Don't be such a downer John, this could be fun
John: *Rolls eyes* Fine
*They all sit in secluded areas around the stage and begin thinking about their poems*
*5 minutes later*
Paul: Alright, is everyone ready?
Davy: Sure
Mike: Who goes first?
George: I vote Paul since this was his idea
Paul: Ok, starting us off with mine, I hope you all like it. it's called "Ode To My Makeup"
Have you all noticed this bag I carry with me?
It's special and has all the things I need you see.
The stuff that keeps me alive and looking well
My makeup always gets me to look good and always feel swell.
Mascara, blush, eyebrow pencil, lipstick, and wipes galore
Whenever I run out, I always bother my lads to buy me more.
*Paul bows while everyone remains speechless*
*Audience claps, but the lads all remain silent*
John: Paul. Why?
Paul: It was perfect, anyway, I vote Micky to read his next
Micky: Oh goody, mine is called "You Dirty Rat"
I walk up onto that stage
Thinking that the audience will be filled with rage
Looking around I notice a hush fell around the room
I knew that if I blew this one, it would be my doom.
So I took out my props and put on my first hat
And said James Cagney's famous words, you dirty rat.
*Everyone claps for this one*
Mike: That was pretty good old buddy, didn't think you had it in you
Micky: Why thank you Mike, George, you're up
George: *Takes a deep breath* My poem is called "Food is Good"
The kitchen, my most favorite place in the house
Where I can walk in and not be quiet like a mouse.
Eating pretty much anything in sight is such a great feeling
It conducts my natural healing.
You lads like to point I eat a lot and to me it's nothing new
But newsflash, so do you.
*Audience laughs and claps*
Paul: Wow, quite moving, yet I'm also offended for some reason
George: Peter, you're turn
Peter: Ok George, I'm actually doing a seasonal one called "The Snow in My Boots"
It's cold outside and the snow is coming down
For some it can make them smile and for others it gives them a frown.
The snow glistens and glitters in the sun
Oh how playing in the snow and even looking at it is quite fun.
The only problem is walking in it and it can cause my body to become a little loose
But worst of all, I end up with snow in my boots.
*Audience claps*
Davy: That was beautiful Peter, and very relatable too
Peter: John, I choose you to go next
John: I had a feeling, anyway my poem is appropriately named "The Walrus"
Goo Goo G'joob
Thank you
*Audience stays quiet*
Paul: That's really what you prepared for in those 5 minutes?
John: Yes
Micky: Well that's kind of unfair
John: Not all poems are lengthy, some are short and sweet, that's what mine was, don't you agree audience?
*Audience murmurs confused statements to each other*
John: I said, don't you agree audience?
*Audience sarcastically claps*
John: Anyway, Mike, you're up
Mike: Ok, mine is named "My Wool Knit Hat"
There graciously sitting on my head and always staying in place
Will always be placed there without a second thought and without haste.
Blue, black, and green are my main choices because they go with a lot
I can wear those hats whether it's cold or hot.
My fashion choices are not strange and should be seen more
Because I'm who I am and wool knit hats are a part of my heart and in the core.
*Audience claps*
Peter: *Wipes away a tear* That was beautiful Mike
Mike: Thanks buddy, Ringo, you're turn
Ringo: Yay! I decided to call mine "Peace and Love"
So much in this world has occurred and the peace has been disturbed
All of these rules being broken and new ones always being inferred.
Someone needs to stand up and bring back the peace there once was
For the ones who agree, you can tell the ones who don't just because.
All of the love will be back and will be all over the place
All I'm saying is give peace a chance and peace and love to the ones who make it their haste.
*Audience claps*
Micky: Thank you Ringo
Ringo: You're welcome! Davy, you're the last one
Davy: So it looks that way, I actually also went with a seasonal one called "That Time of Year"
Here comes the snow, coming down so fast
For a couple of months is how long it'll last.
There's a lot you can do in the snow and have such a blast
Although walking through it can leave you a little gassed.
But a part from that, it's just so beautiful to watch it fall
That it can be loved me and by all.
*Audience claps*
John: Not bad Davy, thank god we're done
Mike: I actually thought that was rather enjoyable
Paul: Agreed, we should do that more often
George: How about we make my poem a reality and get some food?
Peter: Sure George, just let me get a new pair of boots
George: Yay!
A/N: Hi everyone! Believe it or not I actually came up with these poems on the spot! It can be a little easy when you have an idea, but some of them were a little difficult. I really hope you liked this chapter though!
