Cute Little Poem

[Clementine]

Hey everyone! I found this poem in my old papers and such. I think I wrote is for something going on at Jim Carrey Online. Anyway, i thought I would share it with everyone:

Carreyed Away

by Mery McNett



Standing on a stage

trying something out of the blue,

a comedian had the guts to show us something new


With outlandish thoughts that stirred in his mind,

he put them to use and became the funniest of all time.


From his rubber body talent poured

and with a big toothy smile,

how could he be ignored?


A star that seemed to rise so quickly and swift,

in fact worked for years perfecting his gift.


An artist whose work is surreal,

with contorsions, dark thoughts and unique perceptions,

his genius cannot be concealed.


But there is a way that he tickles our fancy,

when Ace Ventura is doing a little dancey.


A man just trying to do what he loves,

he fits all his roles just "like a glove".


I for one hope he gets what he deserves,

hopefully the Academy will one day observe.


He wrote the theme of his life in the cement one November day,

and it was more than a whole book could ever try to convey.


Rowing the boat

gently down the stream,

Jim Carrey showed us

that life is but a dream.



Merrily, merrily, merrily...

Life is but a dream.

WOW; I <3LOOOVE<3 this poem to bits really!!!!!!! I hope Jim himself will read it someday too - I bet he would love it just as much, if not even more!!

And I certainly hope he'll get that Oscar he so richly deserves one day too!!!

[Jimmie]

Wow. I really didn't expect anything that good. How old were you when you wrote it and how long did it take??



I know this company that you could send it to if you want to take a shot at getting it published. I sent one there a couple years ago, and now i'm a published poet! Cool, huh? Just pm me if you would like to know, cuz this company puts out a book of poems once a year.

[Happygal]

Wow! Really nice.

[cable girl]

I certainly agree with Jimmie; you should have it published Clementine!

[Jimmie]

Yeah, you really should, i just don't know if this specific publication company allows poems about famous people, but if his name is never mentioned than i don't see why the would turn it down.
