Dear little curtain ring
So delicate, so small
Yet without you curtains
Would not hang at all.
They would be as useful
As windows in the floor
I wish, little curtain ring
We'd appreciate you more.
This is not symbolism
For symbolism's sake
This is for all forgotten
Things we often take
For granted, yes it's true
How many poems do you know,
Where little curtain ring
Is the centre of the show?

Life's a mystery.
She's painting skies. And kissing butterflies. She's dancing on the moon. And wishing on dandelions. She's letting the wind ripple through her hair. She's running in creeks. She's trying to fly.
I wish I was engaged to Opuss, We'd get on without a fuss. No domestic issues, Then Opuss, I'd never miss you. We care for each other dearly, And so I ask sincerely: Can I marry this paw print app.
Hey you beautiful writers I like your stuff. I just keep on reading them without getting enough. What a world I get in when I start to read. Wonderful stories in my life once I can need.
I love the way you wrap me up. I love the warmth you give me. I love the way you release when I get to hot. I love the way you comfort me when I'm ill. I love you because you're always there.
In a bucket, sent this morning, in the post, first class (Sorry to boast), There were a few stars, Maybe three at the most. Two cherries, I don't know why, Why would I need berries. Make a berry pie.
Each Opuss I post, you often to like, Your mind is always spoke, You leave friendly comments for me to see, And we both like Murder She Wrote.
This is a little thank you for @leelee101. Some may know you as King Teatea.
Go back to bed, ye wake too soon, Or stay awake and bide the moon, I do not care of what you do, This Monday's off, it has the flu.
The tiny and ridiculous in search of a bigger picture. Just keep an eye on your syllable lengths AND your meter: where / is stressed and - is unstressed: /-/-/-/ -/-/-/ -/-/-/-/ -/-/-/ Something like that for a four liner with an an ABAB rhyming pattern would be a good starting point or to work towards to where possible, obviously reading for meaning! I like how you extend the last stanza though to a 1+1/2 It keeps things interesting and cheeky.
Something like, 'we'd value you some more.' that's pretty sloppy, I'm sure you can think of something better! J x
You're right, I feel guilty now thinking about how I have neglected them little curtain rings or anything tiny and seemingly 'insignificant' (:
