Here's one I wrote earlier. Sadly the formatting is lost when uploaded here.

My Mug

I have this ancient mug. I've had the thing for years. It mostly holds my coffee. But now and then some beer.

On the outside is a dinosaur, A Toujiagosaurus (honestly). I've used it for so long now, The damn thing's almost porous.

It's chipped and cracked all over. It's a dirty grey inside. I clean it every now and then, With neat formaldehyde.

Every time I have a coffee, My mug, it runneth over. This goes back unto the time, I swapped sugar for baking soda.

My mug, it serves me faithfully, Though leaking like a sieve, It leaves more coffee on my desk, Than has ever passed my lips.

My wife, she swears she'll buy anew, Next time she's down the market. I oft reply, no need have I. Oh drat! I've bleeding dropped it!

The poem was great.Writing a poem about simple things like a mug or rain can be quite tough.You need to have a lot of good imagination for that. Has anyone ever read Robert Frost's poems? Especially the road not taken.
