MIX MASTER STRAIGHT ARROW SPARROW

jesserose99 wrote a poem for this picture and I told her I would as well. Now if anyone else wants to write a poem for this picture please be sure to send a read request and share the inspiration :~)

                Take that Rock`en Robin

I can tell you who rocks in the tree tops all day long
And it is not a robin like they sing in that old song
It's me, Mix Master Straight Arrow Sparrow the MC
I slip the lip that charms the Swallow and Chick-a-dee
And it ain't no common bird call like tweet, tweet, tweet
Once I start a chirping all the fowl are stomping their feet
The old Owl and the Big Black Crow just sway in the wind
When I spinning my rap, the whole bird world is my friend
So fear not that sound you hear off into the top of the tree
That tail feather shaking beat on Jaybird Street is only me

Author's Note

I leave most punctuation to the reader that they can read the poem in their own meter, mood and motility. I thank you for taking the time to read my work.

This is sweet and made me smile. Add music to it and it would make a merry song.
This picture is striking at my creative cords. Maybe a poem In the making.

[R.J Calzonetti (Siniste..]

I am beary happy that you have such an awesome sense of humor. You made me smile, and hold back a laugh. Thanks for that.

[Bear]

I have a number of humorous poems posted many of them Christmas poems because everyone should be happy at Christmas so it is my gift to everyone who reads my poetry :~)

[Nia Lisa]

Oh how I tried rapping to this. Your writing has versatility to it :)

[Bear]

Thank you, time forces a writer to be flexible and life's experiences inspire's us to discover new ways of thinking about those experiences so even though I am an old man I am still open and young minded looking for new things to write about and new ways to write about them :~)

[Emily]

I really like this!
Keep it up!!

[Bear]

Thank you Em :~)

[Davidgeo]

Ha.. yeah, that's ridiculous. I loved it.

3rd line: I bet you say "mixer" to the meter or some other structural need, but I would cut that to "mix"

'mix master straight arrow sparrow'.... either way, I still got me a good chuckle.

I like me a good chuckle so I must like this good I have no doubt.

[Bear]

Yes, you are right it should be mix not mixer, my friend and fellow poet ShadowWhysper told me no one would say anything about the mistake in this poem :~) Glad you enjoyed it, I shall gladly return the read and review favor soon.

[Davidgeo]

This is not a quid pro quo thing to me. DO NOT review me out of obligation. It's almost always bullshit when that's the motivation

I love this! I was sort of rapping this poem in my head as I read it, and for the most part the rhythm is very good. There are a few places where it gets a bit off, but overall pretty solid. And I'm no rap expert, so my judgment isn't necessarily 100% accurate. :) I highly enjoy the title "mixer master straight arrow sparrow the mc" - do I have permission to introduce myself like this from now on? :) I honestly had no idea what this poem would be about based on the title, but I'm very glad I read it. It was a very enjoyable read - amusing, unique, a little whimsical, and (I hope you don't mind me saying this, it's just because the speaker is a sparrow) rather cute. Great work!

[Bear]

I am glad you enjoyed it, it was a fun write and feel free to use the title but beware you may get called out ad have to prove you have the lip to carry the title :~) I am lucky to have a broad musical interest even at my age plus I have a nephew I have been teaching to write that is into rap and gave me the thumbs up on this poem before I posted it.

[paulnewman2]

got to admit you had a great inspiration.Enjoyed the feel to it.

[Bear]

Thank you for stopping by, I am glad you enjoyed it, I shall gladly return the read and review favor soon :~)

I loved reading each line of this poem. what expressions, what imagery and fab poetry!
So, lyrical that I can hum this all day along, with a beat!

Can anything flow as smooth and seamless as this ?
It ain't the river nor the breeze
but your pen inking the mastery, thee.

After reading the descript at the top, I should get a pen and write a bit.
The picture, invokes and inspires poetry.

Thanks for sharing, this wonderful piece.
I'm glad to read this one, Bear!

[Bear]

I can't take much of this kind of talk as my head is already too large, I would hate to have to hire someone to help me carry it lol. I have been writing poetry for over five decades, it is my outlet for the stresses of life and best friend and writing poems like this one fill me with sunshine. I hope, that you will send me a read request so I may enjoy your inspired work of literature as well :~)

[Abhilash Hegde]

hahaha, if you would have to hire someone to carry the talk :D
I really enjoyed reading your writes, couldn't stop expressing what I felt and saw in your writes.
May be the words I expressed were too sweet for comfort, lol!
Honestly, sheer respect ..
Thanks Bear, for filling us too with sunshine and more :)

[Insight "MH"]
