All eyes are on you - and the parts of speech...

Happy Sunday!  Today's poems, unlike yesterday, have only one thing in common - they are poems (if you stretch the definition just a bit.)  SiS/Few Miles provided a picture of eyes as their haiku prompt, and Sunday Scribblings wants to see a story, which I attempt to do in triple Rictameter form.  Ready?  Here goes...

 

RequEYEted Love

I am watching you,

trying hard to unnerve you.

Wait.  What?  You like it?

 Conjunctions and Conjugations

 

This is

the story of

the conjunction,

which may sound silly but

that’s what it is, and yet some folks

may scoff and say, “Conjunctions?  Bah!  Nothing!

They’re not even some worthwhile parts

of our language or speech,

nor have they worth.”

But, see…

without

the conjunction,

the run-on sentence would

run on on on on on on on…

we would be stuck using prepositions

which might be fun for a while but

that would get dull quite fast

and that would suck,

you know.

But wait, there's more...

Now here’s

a story of

conjugation

(not to be confused with

conjugal, which is something else.)

Am, Is, Are, Was, Were, Be, Being

and Been are how you conjugate the verb

‘To Be.’  When Hamlet said those words,

he was conjugating

and you can, too.

The end.
