I rise to the challenge, like a ship on a tidal wave
Cris A decided to start some kind of challenge thread on the forums. Quite a good idea, I thought, and I enjoyed reading all the silly challenges, other hubbers were cooking up for each other. But then....my name appeared....I was challenged by that old codger, Ralwus. He said, I must write a poem. Oh Ralwus, you wiley rascal, here is my challenge poem!
The challenge was set by a man called CC,
He expected me to fail miserably.
He said, “Write a poem!”
Oh, you cute little gnome,
Did you think that because of my large hips,
Words of poetry couldn’t escape from these lips?
Well, I accepted the challenge, never fear,
For the mistress of rhyme and poetry is here.
I can play with and twist a word or two,
You think I can’t, I’ll show you!
I’ll reach deep down inside my brain,
And catch a ride on that damn train,
Heading for the imagination station,
On the way collecting inspiration.
You think my writing fits in a box,
But this box has no locks.
It has no sides, it has no bottom, it has no lid,
The words flow, they fly, well I think they did.
And it’s what I think that really counts,
My words bounce!
So there, take that!
Next time you go to the forum and chew the fat,
Remember me –
Cindy
Cindy Vine, teacher, author, mother,
Do you hear me, my brother?
Fear, Phobias and Frozen Feet,
I served you up a little treat,
To teach you about the effects of abuse.
Read it, you have nothing to lose.
And then there’s a story of a girl like me
In Stop the world, I need to pee!
Hub-a-bub-bub
What a mix is in this tub?
I do declare for all who read this,
That writing poetry is a piece of piss,
So CC my dearest darling man,
Next time, a stronger challenge, if you can?

Cindy Vine was thrown a challenge by CC
It helped keep her a wee busy at her PC
Now CV is not the kind who backs off
At challenges her hat she does doff
She gets into the ring, words from her fly
If you get in her way...me oh my my!!!!
A thrust, a feint, a parry, a swing
I'm getting my sport mixed up in the ring :P
From CV's keyboard has emerged poetry and prose galore
And we keep coming back,wanting more and more........ :)
Aha the woman stoops to conquer the old buffoon! Ha! Way to go Miss CinDivine! And yep, you can rhyme with the best in my book :D
Hahahaha. I enjoyed this thoroughly, Cindy! Good to read your funny thoughts again...and good to see you. :)
This is great, Cindy. You are so creative and so funny. Guess you showed him!! Where is this forum?...goin' to find it!
Pretty good, Cindy!
Ah, thank ye all, thank ye all, I curtsey before ye. Okay, it's a Sunday so I have to sound biblical, hence the 'ye'. Great poem Diana lol, and where is that rascal? The porous Walrus, or was it ralwus? Hmm that sounds almost sexic dyslexic.
hahaha, as usual you are quite witty my Cindy, yes you are. LOL I had no doubts about it at all, but never expected this masterpiece. I love it! A true friend stabs you in the front. You got me right in the heart. Kudos, love CC
hi, nice one here, I see that this poem was made without an effort, hmmmm, I really like this poem, You are quite a nice writer, indeed !
Aye Ralwus, I know you knew I could do it! You are a true friend, would never set me up to fail! Luvya man!
Prettydarkhorse, I've always been good at rhyming, a bit like Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes type of stuff or Dr Seuss, not serious dark adult stuff though!
I am not much into poetry, but this is sweet.
Keep on hubbing!
I love this, ha...awesome!
Great poem, Cindy! I love it when friends can talk smack to each other in good fun :D I really do enjoy the camaraderie here at HubPages and this proves exactly why our community is the very best online! Thanks so much for sharing with us your poem to Charles. Good stuff!
....And if your mind a thought won't visit,
Don't make your poems too explicit.
But you of course without preamble,
Succinctly stumped the damn'ble Campbell.
Cheers Kid.
LOL, she did dint she Firm?
Eovery, it's cause I am sweet!
Madison, good you enjoyed it lol
Dohn HP is a great community and it pains me when you see people come and go.
TOF, haha I did, didn;t I? Left out sexual bits, it was a clean poem.
Ralwus, I read your dancing hub but my internet crashed before I could comment. I enjoyed it. Those dances were before my time though....just!
Haha - stumped Charlie, did you?
That was so enjoyable, Cindy - knowing the man, he's going to pester you for many more poems :D
Ha! Who even thought they could trump Ms. CVine! Hilarious!
Shalini,if he pesters me, I'll put him over my lap and give his butt a few slaps.
AIDY, yeah but Charlie wasn't stumped either, he wrote on excellent hub on 1950's dances!
Whoa, cindyvine, got 'em all, that time. Way to go! Whoo hooo!!!!!
HEY, TA MUCHLY PARADIsE, oops, how did the caps lock go on?
Cindy, the ante has officially been upped with this poem. I feel like an ancient Roman watching two magnificent gladiators do battle!
Haha MM, we might just lay our swords to rest and ride off into the sunset.
Aha...Cindy you must have knocked the wind right out of CC's sails!!
HA! You did a great job in meeting the challenge! :) I am catching up with the hubs, have not been in the forums. This is entertaining. LOL!
Haha, I will need to get a slow boat to Africa for my spanking. I just may enjoy that. LOL I have my thinking cap on and will come up with something dear Miss Deevine. Oh how I need to hug you in person. xox
FP, don't think anything will knock the wind out of those sails.
Violet, yeah, haven't see you around for ages.
Ralwus, am waiting for you with open arms lol
Having come in a wee bit late on all this hub challengery piffle-piff, just wanted to thank you for the giggles--yet again. In true style and form, always will be an admirer! Thanks, Cindy!
Hey Daniel, never too late to challenge someone to do something out of the box!
So Cindy was a poet but we didn't know it. A charming response to a challenge.
Yeah Dolores, sometimes I manage to surprise even myself!
Awaiting another poem about ants, or aunts. hehe No, I got a better one for ya. Jockeys. LOL I know ya can do that.
Ah, yeah, the jockeys...well CC, want to get Billy B finished, the first draft that is, then go back and look at all the suggestions and revisions suggested and start revising! Hey, did you see the cover for The Case of Billy B I sent you?
