Done for my English III H class in high school. Read it in front of the class, I got the ladies grinning and the guys laughing, but needless to see, my teacher was not pleased.:D
Had to share with Woot:
For All The World To See
What a visage lay in the daybreak of gray and dim,
As I awaken to my constant morning companion for all the world to see,
Three gazes locked upon me, staring unceremoniously at my flag that all the world can see,
The tent I carry with me, bulging for all the world to see,
Widened and unbelieving, these eyes witnessed the proud unyielding glory that my flag be,
Enormous and proud, for all the world to see.
Curious I halt and silent stand,
Then with light fingers I cover the dreaded unwanted morning stand,
Yet hands too small, to hide away perfection;
Who are yee elderly old man so gaunt and grim, to stare so rudely at my grand and unyielding mans salute?
Second pair of eyes, upon my grandiose tortoise, and me;
Who are yee young child, who has no hope of ever growing to proportions as manly as I?
Then to the third and final set of star struck eyes, a face unbelieving and envious
Contorted with laughter. Young man, laugh not, for as pale as you and I may be,
Contrasted is my flag, for there, I am black as can be.
