POEM AND LYRIC REWRITE: Internet Family and Love On The Internet
These were created for the CPC Wonderful Wednesday poetry challenge, where the theme is internet love.
INTERNET FAMILY
Each day or night, when so inclined,
whether you are on cloud nine,
or by fate you’re feeling cursed,
sign into your friendly Friendburst.
Start by viewing comments posted
on the profile page you hosted.
Post a notice of your own;
check if your friendship lists have grown.
Read poetry and compliment;
perhaps obtain enlightenment.
Express yourself with your own gem;
regale yourself as well as them.
Relate your feelings on your blog.
Join a group or keep a log.
Enjoy serendipity
in the Friendburst family.
When feeling down or all alone,
go to a place where love light’s shone.
A place to create poetry,
which we call the CPC.

LOVE ON THE INTERNET
Lyric rewrite of “Love Is A Battlefield.”
Young or old, laptop to laptop we sit.
Big promises, lots of hope:
love on the Internet.
On our page, we post a bunch of love songs
Researchin’ the search engines so long, searchin’ for
love on the Internet.
No one’s beggin’ us to go, or makin’ us stay.
No one can hurt us so bad.
At least no one we’ll ever know.
If they ruin our day, we can just pull out the plug.
Deceive us, deceive us, we’ll never know why.
Still can be hurt by love, and be drained from the ride.
Young or old, laptop to laptop we sit.
Big promises, lots of hope:
love on the internet.

Partial Lyrics to “Love Is A Battlefield” by Michael D. Chapman and Holly Knight
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
We are strong, no one can tell us we’re wrong
Searchin’ our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
Love Is A Battlefield
You’re beggin’ me to go, you’re makin’ me stay
Why do you hurt me so bad?
It would help me to know
Do I stand in your way, or am I the best thing you’ve had?
Believe me, believe me, I can’t tell you why
But I’m trapped by your love, and I’m chained to your side
We are young, heartache to heartache we stand
No promises, no demands
Love Is A Battlefield
Both pieces just awesomeness Bob .. Hugzzzzs :love: :love:
