Question: Do you like this poem I wrote!. It's meaningless, really, a sort of practice poem!?
There is a little boy I know
Well, not so little now
Whose favourite thing in all the world
Is sitting on a cow

I don't know why he does this
It's really rather odd
You'd think he'd find it deadly dull
Just perched there on his todd

But day by day he sits there
Come sun, come wind, come rain
I've scratched my head, but just don't know
Quite what he has to gain

Perhaps he likes the company
Of Mollie (that's the cow)
So that is why he sits there
For as long as she'll allow

And she, that patient cow of his
That gentle bovine beast
Seems happy with her burden
And not bothered in the least

At first it freaked me out a bit
Of that I must confess
But now that I've got used to it
I'm worried less and less

For some of us, I'm sad to say
A friend is hard to find
So telling them they're really weird
Would be somewhat unkind

Now everytime I see them, I just wonder
(though it's dumb)
If she ever gets a backache
Or the boy a painful bumWww@QuestionHome@Com

!.!.!.!.I like this silly poem
and really I should know
Ive written some much worse than this
when inspiration slow
but taken all in all I think
your talent should be praised
if people rhymed there answers here
the standards would be raised
then you and I would gain respect
and win such reputation
no more the ridicule or abuse
but fame and adoration!.!.!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Thank You! Thats one of the best poems I've ever read on here!. I like poems that are just funny to read and everything about it flows nice!. Too many times all you read on here is emo poems!. It's so nice to read something FUN!.
Keep up the good work!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think it's great! But there is a grammar error you need to correct:

But now that I've got used to it

Needs to be : But now that I've gotten used to it

or : But now that I am used to itWww@QuestionHome@Com

i like it, but if it's aimed for kids you need something to keep their attention because it's a bit long!. maybe get someone to draw some pictures, or something!. and what is a todd!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

You might need to shorten it to fit kids attention spans!. It is cute with a nice message!. Adults could learn from it as well, which is usually the sign of a well worded piece!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That's not a poem - it's a KILLER children's book! Superb kind of sense/nonsense that children love - endless potential for illustration!. I say you copyright it ASAP!. Maybe your 11 year old would want to help illustrate!?!Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is wonderful!.!.!.so British, which means you're probably from Vancouver!.!.!.

Well done, Lass!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Delightful, and you kept the same rhythm throughout, I will read it to my niece (she's six) sometime--Guaranteed smiles and giggles!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is delightful! I was lol already at the 4th line!. "Of Mollie
(that's the cow)<<<<that part I think could take a change!.
