So I have to leave for class in about 10 minutes and I am still in my pyjamas but I saw this competition and couldn't help myself. Compose a POE'm for Doe Deere? Absolutely!
I took my inspiration from the very first moment I came across the Doe Deere Blogazine and wanted to express just how much this site has helped to brighten my days. Enjoy!
through this dreaded essay which had long since earned my scorn,
While I blinked through bleary eyes, suddenly came a surprise
In the welcome form of salutation from the Queen of the Unicorn
"Tis just a dream, this bright delight, the Queen of the Unicorn?"
I scoffed while stifling a yawn.
Distinctly I recall those days, of late nights in scholarly haze,
Caffeinated nightmares picked apart my addled mind
When a bright delight, the unicorn, swept in with the early morn
With gleeful lessons, flights of fancy, what a glorious site to find,
Delightful dresses, shoes and tresses were displayed for all to find
Some daylight for my mind.
Life has now shuffled on, a year older - a year more strong
Yet I cannot forget the whimsy of a blog I found at dawn
One night as a laboured, on a pursuit that I once savoured
the study of ancient history had become a big old yawn,
Where would my mind be without the Queen of the Unicorn?
Nothing more than a stifled yawn.
