| What is an Occasional Verse |
|
An Occasional Verse is Poetry for the Everyday Poet. A website devoted to enabling poets easy access to publishing their occasional verse, poetry collections, poems, lyrics, odes, songs and sonnets. Starting with the ability to post their own work on anoccasionalverse.com and even going as far as starting your own poetry website.
We are still working to make An Occasional Verse easy to use but as you can now easily register and begin uploading your own poetry. The collections option is also now working. When you log in you will have the ability to Add a Collection. Then when you go to upload your Poems you can pick from your collections.
As of 04/21/2005 you can't search or list based on the Category but we are working on that also. We appreciate your patience while we make this the best poetry website available on the web.
We look forward to your comments and feedback.

A Jack O Lantern Moon - Viewed 965 Times
| David Devaney
Website
October 29, 2004 |
I saw a Jack O Lantern moon
Deep in the autumn sky
The ghosts that tiptoed on its cap
Did all man’s laws defy
A halo aura all around
Revealed its inner glow
Bright orange it seemed from here on earth
Passing very slow
This all appeared as I did watch
Eclipses of the moon
Unaware when I emerged
These shadows changed my tune
Amazing and phenomenal
I’d not seen this before
This beauty so remarkable
Brought thoughts of witches lore
For in the Fall comes “Halloween”
A night when goblins prowl
And friendly children everywhere
Like monsters start to scowl
So now it seems appropriate
to see a pumpkin there
I share this treasure with the world
It was unique and rare | | © 2004 David Devaney |
