Ok, here's a fun game: Roses are red Poetry!

The only criteria is that it has to be a recognisable variation of the poem

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet
and so are you.

So, here are some I've come up with:

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
My feet are smelly. . .
I stepped in some poo!
---
Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
The eye of Sauron
says, "I SEE YOU!"
---
Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
My girlfriend is beautiful.
Our love is true.
---
Blue are the violets
and red are the roses.
So was the sea
Divided by Moses.

This isn't mine, but I found it and thought it was cute [Smile] :

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
All of my base
are belong to you.

There's always the classic:

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I'm schizophrenic...
And so am I.

Roses are red,
And bloom in the summer,
You weigh as much,
As the Army's new Hummer.

Rosy is dead,

And Violet is too,

I think i'd start running,

If I were you....

Yates?

Anyway, I have the following:

Roses are pink,
And violets are black;
They then start to stink,
They're off to the rack.
---
Roses aren't red,
Nor violets blue;
They've both turned lime green,
To look just like you.
---
Last line read rapidly without breathing:

Violets are brown,
For roses are saffron,
They both are convicted
Of slaughtering that petty old maniac whom we tend to refer to as "sexy_aaron".
---
Roses are scarlet,
And daisies are yellow:
And if you'll see either,
Your heart will be mellow.
---
I favour this one, though:

Roses are reddish,
And violets blueish;
If it weren't for Christmas,
The world would be Jewish.
---
Red is the rose,
And violet's deep pink;
I'm starting to dose,
For your BO does stink.
---
Roses on the field are deep red and killed by vermin,
And violets are blue, fore and behind;
But I will never ever be such able to determine,
For - alas - I still am colour blind.
---
It is an ancient rose,
And he hurt us, one of three.
'By your long thorn, and glittering vine,
Wherefore now hurtest thou me?

The weird-plant's thorns are sharp and wide,
You are his next of kin?
Well, I shall tell you, plant and brat,
You just committed a sin.'

Violets are bluish,
Roses, vermillion,
How do I love the?
From one to a zillion!

*********

Violets are violet,
And roses are rose,
Why this should be so,
Nobody knows.
