Dear CoasterBuzzers,
While a roller coaster, with its perfectly executed twists and turns, in itself is a wonderful poem, I believe that the sheer emotion evoked by a great coaster is a perfect thing to express in poetry, as quirky as it may be. So if roller coasters evoke the slightest bit of passion for life in you, write a poem about it here. I myself have come up with a poem dedicated to coasters, specifically their waiting lines. I call it: "Queue Haiku."
Jumping up and down,
filled with so much excitement.
We are almost there.

wow! creative (hint sarcasm). We are learning poetry it our literature class and I came up with one for homework.
I waited in line for S:ROS all day,
I can't believe I gave Sixflags my pay,
To wait and wait and wait some more,
This is really a bore.
Finally I make it to the loading platform,
Through the crowd I pushed and pushed,
Before I left I knew I'd be smooshed.
Finally we make it to the front car,
Strap our seatbelt, lower our lap bar,
as we dispatched while still in the car,
I screamed and hollered as we crested the hill,
I knew this time I'd be in for a thrill!
Down the 2 hundred and 8 foot drop,
This coaster treats me like i'm a mop,
Through the helix I fly,
the wind is hitting me like a cherry pie,
Finally over the bunny hops,
Some girls flash there tops! :)
Then into the brakes,
We enter the station,
And exit the car with so much tempation,
to ride again it is so much fun,
but I realize the park is closed,
Waking up in my bed,
I realized I hit my head!

Escape from your troubles
a ride in the rain
your in for a thrashing
Wood, Steel, looping, & hyper
just buckle up, and hold on for life
through twists in turns
you will fly
as you take you ride in the sky
And if to this point you have not figured out
of what one I am speaking
your in for a beating
when you ride Son of Beast!
-----------------
800,000 years in 7 seconds: Time Machine the movie or next S&S creation?
I almost rode Son of Beast but it broke down and we had to go. But from your poem, I'm not sure I would have wanted to!
There once was a man from Aurora,
Who could not even fit through the door-a.
He waited in line,
for a very long time,
but in seat room the train needed more-a.
My stab at a coaster limerick!

Interesting poems. In the room at my school which my World Literature class normally meets in, some poems which another class wrote are posted on the back wall. Two of those poems are about SFGAm, one is about Raging Bull.

Welcome back Raptor riders-how was your flight?
Here's my two line coaster poem:
Apollo's Chariot.
If it were a girl, I'd marry it.
Thank you, thank you.

The legend lives!
"Hola,"
Said Lola
On opening day.
"Let's go to Camp Snoopy
And have fun and play!"
But her boyfriend, named Paco, thought different
Of course.
He said, "No, let's go ride
Millenium Force!"
lol

A limerick I just wrote:
Some coaster ethusiasts boast,
About which one has ridden the most.
But here on this site,
All day and all night, it's:
TAER IT DOWN and Where went my post?!?

He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking; can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding.

There number 1

When Im on coasters I never frown!

Touch The Sky
Here is One about Mr. Frezze:
Siting in my seat ready to fly,
Hope I don't smell that old guy,
Going up the top hat getting upside down,
Now my boxers are brown,
Going down to overbank
I swear I could feel the speed crank
Going straight up into the sky
Ohh great! The smeel of old Guy
Back down and all in reverse
Now I am done with this verse.

Rollercoasters....Myanti-drug
