I seem to Have Misplaced my Thesis Statement.

My inspiration's gone out the window. At such a horrbile time--on the day of Teralyn's birthday. DX

Hello,

 

At the moment I cannot see you in person.

Please disregard that, and instead pretend that I’m in front of you.

…Preferably as an awesome mighty dragon.

Yes, I do enjoy that.

 

Belated this is, yes,

I know--a whole DAY.

Realize though that time is just a number.

Tis’ the dedication that counts, right?

Heh, I’m pathetic aren’t I?

Dumb and clueless.

At least I’m still me, and

You are all you!

 

That is the beauty of it all,

Everyone is who they are.

Really, we all have our flairs…

And I just forgot why I’m writing this.

Listen, I’m sure I can remember…

Yes, maybe it’s written here somewhere…

No, what I hoped to tell you eludes me.

 

 

Happy Birthday Teralyn J

Author's Note

Ok, this is like one of the weirdest pieces of writing I've ever written. I've labeled it as a story, but it begins as a letter and has the format of an acrostic...

I'm crazy. o3o

This poem/story/letter is dedicated to Teralyn for her birthday. She is one of my best virtual friends ever and *whispers* she's wise beyond her years.

I really don't know how this all played out. When I first finished it I thought it was stupid. I thought, "who would like such a ridiculous mutation of writings?"

But I'm not the judge.

You are! :D (Please don't cast a depressing rain cloud over my head...)

This is so sweet :) I loved the way you built it up; acrostic and story, with a nice flow and theme. And the best part: it's so original (especially the title XD).

At your author's note: I DO!! :D

I object to second "Birthday" stanza line 5 and 6. But besides that, this was really nice :)

[Summer D.]

I should feel guilty. I'd be.. *counts on fingertips* Three months late with my birthday gift of sorts. Well, I suppose it's the thought that counts. I did get grounded on that day anyway. So it's a rather cheery gloomy one.

Anyway, clever clever!
You shine through the tight spaces between these letters.
It was sweet.

Good job!

*100*

For creativity.

OH. MY. GOSH. I swear, I reviewed this no joke! WC is playing tricks on me or something.....

But it's so nice of you. The poem definitely brings our your personality. :) But no you are not dumb and clueless. You are you, with your greatness.

Loved this poem though. :) Made me laugh.

I just noticed this, aha, a very pleasant surprise! Thank you very much, Soondos (I do love your name, by the way), this is greatly appreciated. You all made my birthday very cheery, even if a day late on dedications. :3
