Plagiarism Poetry

by Betty Jo Tucker — Read all 96 poems by Betty Jo Tucker

My dear husband insisted I do this poem, so I dedicate it to him.

Sunday, August 8, 2021


Poem Artwork

 

I think that I shall never see

a poem as lovely as a tree.

So come with me and be my love

and we will all these treasures trove.

 

Mona Lisa with her sweet smile.

How does she keep up all that guile?

And fogs brought in by tiny cats

or penguins dancing without hats.

 

Or tiger, tiger burning bright

to help us see a starry night.

This world contains such wondrous things.

We two should be happy as kings!

 

With apologies to Joyce Kilmer, Christopher Marlowe, Leonardo Da Vinci, Carl Sandburg, George Miller, William Blake, Vincent Van Gogh, and William Shakespeare.

It's a good thing they are all dead, or they would sue your pants off! What a lovely scarlet maple! And the essence of your poetry, your love for all things wonderful like your marriage, also comes through this wacky but interestingly constructed poem.
