Thanks dublos, that makes me feel better. :rolleyes:
Apparently wyldelf isn’t going to offer an opinion on getting her poem in the mail or on the boards, so I’m posting it here.
Go easy on the critisisms, ok people? I had to dash this off while troubleshooting real world problems here at work. (I swear to God, if this network of ours was a horse, we’d have shot it months ago!)
I still don’t care for the last two lines too much, but what the hell, it rhymes.
Naw, dublos, I am fully clothed.
D’oh! I guess including the poem would be a nice idea.
I really didn’t know what to write the poem about, so the poem’s about not knowing what the hell to write about:
For wyldelf
by Crunchy Frog
I know not what to say of a beauty so rare.
The descriptions of you simply spiral around
In my mind, yet not one of them worthy to share.
You transcend any comments considered profound.
A mere portrait of words your allure would defy.
More then phrases and rhymes would such loveliness need
To convey its true worth, which words only imply.
It is nearly enough to cause madness indeed.
From your side of the world does your beauty reach out
To envelop my heart and enshroud ev’ry thought
And I wonder however did I do without
This so wondrous insanity of mine you have wrought.
I can think of but one thing to say – this simple decree:
If it is as you wish, then I shall make it be.
I know that, I know that.
A little attention now and then is all I ask for, Crunchy my man.
Also you can wish me luck in advance for my examinations next week. I’ll pretend you didn’t write me a poem. You are my favorite brittle amphibian.
Good luck on your exams! And you’ll pretend I didn’t write a poem? Have a written you a poem?
Crunchy, honey…
You KNOW I love you, always have, always will… I hope you feel the same after I urge you…
As a poet?
Don’t quit your day job.

Dear Crunchy,
What you have done here is just the sweetest. I have never had a thread about me or a love poem written for me. I am completely without words …
Though it doesn’t change the fact I think you acted a trollop I just wanted to know that I am willing to give our Virtual Marriage another shot.
I will have to sit down and think of a poem to write for you. So keep checking here!
Check your email in a bit too.
Dear Crunchy Frog
I’ve read your thread
And considered what to do
Then afterwards
I went to bed
And even dreamed of you
I’ve though about it
All day long
And wondered how I felt
I laid it all
On the table
The cards that life has dealt
From silent stalker
I did progress
Then became your wife
And then you went
And gathered more
You twisted in that knife.
With Nym I share you
And gladly so
I love her dearly too
But then you went
And shopped around
Weren’t we enough for you?
Then I thought
It’s rude not to share
So go and have your fun
Just remember dear
That I am here
And I am number one!
::taps foot impatiently::
** FINE **
I am sooooooo taking you to the cleaners in this divorce
and Kristoph will too!!
Damn I think he will have to become my alter ego. Sorry Kristoph - posted as you again.
I now appoint Kristoph as my lawyer.
adjusting his hastily retrieved neck-tie
okay frogman, your gettin’ cooked!!!
not that it matters, how do you plead?
now, papers I’ve recieved from my client say “screw half, I want it all, plus his balls in a glass jar”.
am just waiting on the legal translation of that before we can proceed.
Hello wyldelf,
Sorry I didn’t respond sooner, but I usually only post from work and I’ve had the last couple days off. I also just saw your email a few minutes ago. I’ve sent you a reply.
And sweetie, I’m sure kristoph is a good guy and all, but don’t you think you’d be better off with a lawyer who knows the difference between “your” and “you’re”?
You know you’re the first person who ever wrote me a poem? That is so sweet! So, did you really dream of me, or was that just so it’d rhyme?
I dreamt about eating Skittles last night. I wonder what that’s all about? Why can’t I have good dreams anymore, like the kind I had back in high school? Anyway that’s beside the point.
The point is I loved the poem and I meant no disrepect by not responding sooner - it’s just that I wasn’t around to respond. Are we still getting divorced then?
I’ve just checked the Valentine’s thread where wyldelf called me an ego slut. I think she’s right. Why else would I have accepted so many offers of marraige. So at the risk of getting myself in trouble with my other wives, I’m asking for a divorce from Sily Rabbit (sorry sweetie, but judging from the Valentine’s thread, you’ll do alright for yourself), Miss B Haven (with a name like that you’re sure to be snatched up again in no time), and little*bit (where have you been anyway? Hope everything’s ok).
So I’m now down to just 2 virtual wives, wyldelf and Nymysys, if they’ll both still have me.
I dunno, baby, I’m not doing too shabbily in the Vday thread. I may not need you anymore. And I know you offered me my own thread, but I don’t want to be an ego slut like some people. <coughcoughFROGGYcough>
You have a lot of wooing to do, methinks.
Maybe you should iron out this wyld thing (pun intended) and then you can concentrate on me.
Priorities, my friend, priorities.
Great. Now I’ll be traded in like an old Dodge.
Is this going to require another poem? Just read the one I wrote earlier, you can see I’m not very good at that sort of thing. What I lack in talent though, I make up for in… um… well it does rhyme and have a meter.
The divorce is fine by me, however, I want custody over any references you make with my name in your sig
Crunchy I must commend you on your impeccable taste once again.
We are sharing two of the most beautiful, witty and smart women on this planet. I am not good at poems, but I do know a good thing when I see it.
hugs and kisses to you both, girls!
Fine by me. I have altered my sig accordingly so your name does not appear.
Ahh… clever. However, it is ever so obvious that I am not exactly one to brag about. Leave it if you must.
