twinflower Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Continuing our Poetry Challenge of the Sashes..this week we vote on the best EPITAPH! This is a short poem..written as a rhyme or freestyle that immortalizes the deceased in a humorous fashion! Our subjects: Any of our Kin Council Members or fellow Sash Members! Ok same as last week!! Remember to tell me you posted so I can give you credit Kinsters!!! ALL Kinsters and VISiTORS are invited to vote! Every one gets one vote and the results will be hidden until the end of the week!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! #1Garden of Friends She called us all her garden of Friends. So sad it was us that brought her to the end. The burn from the sun and sweat on her brow Attracted the bugs whose bite she killed with her trowel. Smashing her skull and to heaven did send Our Elegant Eldest, To Lor our knees bend. #2Here lies Bellanoire Here lies Bellanoire One you couldn't ignore Many had tried putting tears in her'eyes and thus the night she died. #3Calypsa lies Here All ALone Calypsa lies here all alone, With a grave marker made out of stone. She was strong in the Power But she slipped in the shower, And now she is nothing but bone #4Here Lies our Dear Twinflower Here lies our dear Twinflower She was sweet and never sour One night while she lay in bed A pile of socks fell on her head Toe socks, knees socks, some argyle Socks that once had made her smile She’d still be here you can bet If the hose she loved had been fish net
