Opposites

You'll have your newspapers

and I'll have my funpapers.

You'll have your smartphone 

and I'll have my dumbphone.

~

You'll have your good day

and I'll have my bad day.

If you take the back roads,

then I'll take the highway.

~

You'll have your pickles,

your peaches and pears.

I'll have my cucumbers,

my oranges and hairs.

~

You'll take the green chair,

but I don't wanna sit.

Cause honey, whatever you have,

I'll want the opposite.

I honestly love this from start to finish. It was enjoyable and very amusing. I am guilty of being the same kind of person when it comes down to someone I might have some slight negative feeling towards. This poem was highly relatable.

The rhyme scheme is perfect! The beginning started with a funny use of a couple of made up words. The ending was my favorite part! I see nothing wrong with your poem and I highly recommend you to keep up the great work.

Overall, I love it and I hope to see more work from you in the near future.

Oh, I love this poem. It is sooo me. The rhyme is beautiful and the humor is a brilliant add. I've no suggestions. The spontaneousness of this is great. It's a great poem and my new favorite, I think. I'll definitely be reading mkre of your work. Bravo. Very good. Brilliant. Especially since I can't write poetry to save my life, hahahahahaha.

Very good! I enjoyed that. As i read I could tell there was a humorous tone to it. I liked the rhyme scheme it added to the humor in my opinion. I don't really have any suggestions. When I read the line, "my oranges and hairs." I was thrown off by the randomness. I imagine it is written about someone you don't like and you just trying to show that you don't care.

Anyways, this is a great piece. Keep up the good work.
