Prince Charming

How I See Myself On Vocal In A Sonnet Inspired By An Adam And The Ants Song

Not Prince Charming

Introduction

This came to me as I was waiting to read my poetry at Northern Slice yesterday. At Brunch 23 I had said I didn't drink, then I was the only one in my group who did not smoke so the Adam and the Ants song came to mind.

๐ŸŒœโ™Žโญโ™Ž๐ŸŒ›

I Don't Drink, Don't Smoke What Do I Do?

I Try To Be Here For All Of You

I Try To Help Anyone In Need

To Hold Your Hand, You Know I'll Be Here

โญ

I Write For You To Share Ideas

And To Talk To You My Friends And Peers

I Love That We're In This Together

Me And You We're Vocal Forever

โญ

Ask Me A Question, I'll Try To Help

I Know That You're Here For Me As Well

If I've The Knowledge Then I Will Tell

Here For You, I'll Cast A Magic Spell

โญ

I Know That I Am No Prince Charming

I Find Your Friendship, Living, Warming

    I came to comment but then I saw that I've already commented the same exact thing I wanted to say hahahahhaa

  • Iโ€™m surprised the others in your group smoked. Less and less people are now smoking, fortunately. I stay away from smokers. I canโ€™t stand the smell. And I hate to inhale their smoke waste that damages my own respiratory system. I really canโ€™t stand smokers. And itโ€™s good you donโ€™t drink or smoke, itโ€™s the smart and healthy thing to do. I loved the poem. I couldnโ€™t listen to more than a few seconds because those weird frantic sounds irritated my ears and nerves. ๐Ÿคฃ

    Love this, but I believe โ€œGoody Two Shoesโ€ is an Adam Ant, not Adam and the Ants song ๐Ÿ’–

    Love this poem! And I love that youโ€™ve started doing live poetry readings. I donโ€™t smoke or drink in social settings either. I think Iโ€™m able to form more authentic connections if Iโ€™m not intoxicated.

  • You definitely ARE Prince Charming. The most Charming Prince in Vocal!

    I almost cried, this was beautiful. If no one has told you today, then they should have, YOU ARE AWESOME, and the true example of what someone should be on vocal. You are an inspiration to all of us here.
