Romeo

"Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou?
I hear your singing yet see you not somehow"

"I’m down here beneath your balcony
Where I doth play loves symphony".

"Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou?
Would that you could show yourself right now"

"I said I’m down here, look down and you shall see
Where I pluck my strings for you and me".

"Romeo, Romeo wherefore art thou?
Come to me where ere you be, fulfil your lovers vow"

"IM DOWN HERE merely feet away
Tell you what, bugger this, Ill come back another day".

Dr Fogg.

I think Romeo may be a bit sick of all the attention he is getting.. All he wanted is to be left alone with his sweetheart and look at all the trouble that happened as a result. For being the great great great great great (and a couple more greats) grandson of someone who knew the Bard (and prob. owed him money) you did pretty good with this. Enjoyed much

Lol, very funny, just confusing a bit when you read it first maby, I think you should break the lines or something, just to make it even more obvious where the Juliets line ends and Romeos begins. Or I don't know, maby it's just me, that stumbbled over this.

Foggy, truly I see the humor in this.
Juliet is deaf and blind! And poor Romeo
blew her off... loved it!! Great twist on
an old lovers hark. EXALT!

Thanks for the comments folks, I too found it a bit awkward and didnt do anything about it, pure laze, I will place quotation marks round each one, maybe thatll do it. Thanks for the advise.

I know what you mean as poets at times
we get lazy we won't to write but can't be bothered
the sun for sorrow will not show its head
some will be punished some will be banished
for there has never such tale THAN OF YULIET AND HER ROMEO

I never wanted to write this post. Life, however, brings to us changes of necessity, not changes we want.

Unfortunately, and as evidenced by the past few months' activities, I do not have the time to properly govern the use of this site anymore. While there are visitors every day, the posts by members are becoming fewer and farther between, and the staff participation is just as sparse.
