So, I had this idea, and I don't think I could make it into an actual poem myself, but I thought it would make a good thread.

Take an animal (it started when I heard some mourning doves), ask it a question (I asked--wait for it--WHAT IT WAS MOURNING! How original.) and then add rhyme.

I'll start. (Well, duh.)
~~~~~
"Whatcha mournin', Mournin' Dove?"
"Sally Sue has lost her glove."

"Why ya yowlin', alley cat?"
"My poor tail got squished by a bat."
~~~
And so on, in the style of a children's book. XD
"Ok, Lolpup. You can be a girl worth fighting for."

Maybe what most people wanted wasn't immortality and fame, but the reassurance that their existence had meant something. No matter how long... or how brief. Maybe being eternal meant becoming a story worth telling.
