A Challenge to those of Lyrical Tongue

Asterus:
As time passed through the window that day
And Mar-bear persisted, extending her stay
It should be noted that her pose lacked any reaction
Except in the case of distraction

Still one question remains in my idle mind
"Why was that the state that her [Emily's] parents find?"
What course would they have for visiting that late,
That far house built alongside the lake?

--- End quote ---
Don't tell me!  Does he have a bucket?
This line is a classic,
although quite Jurassic,
but something inside me said 'fuck it!'

Redball:
Hadn't noticed this thread until today. I posted two limericks on Facebook on Christmas Day. End rhyme in the first is a stretch:

On Christmas, the day is reflective,
a day to be filled with perspective,
when friendships are dear
and family is near
in spirit if not altogective.

I wrote the second after a friend offered a first line, then wrote, "OK, I've stared; others can finish."

There once was a singer named Ball,
who stared so long at y'all
he forgot to look on
at the director's baton
and started to sing not at all.

henri bemis:
I'd write more, but my dactyls are pterrible,
and my rhythm leaves much to desire.
So I'll gather each page of my writing
and chuck it all into the pyre.

Asterus:
Then let us dance around blaze fueled by words without spine
As ink and paper curl, within heat intertwine
Let the flame of this pyre supply future fire
For other works cast from your mind

Still I call for an archive, or even posts live
I feel effort must garner attention
The underestimation serves as circumvention
Of flames of a different kind

What does it matter if one's skills fail to match,
The level you think you must reach?
The fact is that we're all peers on an equivalent level
Each other and ourselves we must teach!
