#50! Roses Are Red - Violets Are Blue
There was a book when I was young, it was a great book - it was such fun. ‘Unreal Bannana Peel’ the title it did go, do you think I have it now? - the answer, it is ‘no’.
I loved that book - so many childish rhymes, so many fun poems you could sing. It was gross too. Some of my favourites were ditties about ‘Fatty and Skinny’ or ‘Roses are Red, Violets are Blue’ songs. So, on our 50th jackpot, I’m going to offer up a really easy contest. I want to see as many entries as you can think of! Make them childish, stupid, funny, gross - whatever. Tell your friends on facebook, post it on myspace, link us from your blog - get as many people as you know to enter. I’m going to be brave here and say - I want over 100 entries. Valid, pure gold, awesome entries. Can you help me? Tell everyone now!
A warning though… if I find any of you copying poems from the interwebs I will give you a big smack and send you to the corner! Here’s a bit of inspiration for you to start off…
Roses are blue.
Violets are red.
If you agree,
You’ve got rocks in your head.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you get me on music
I’ll mention U2
Roses are red
Violets are blue
When I was a kid
I’d say ‘poo in my shoe’
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Most rhymes rhyme
But this one doesn’t
