I'm pretty sure the title says it all...
Post poetry you've written, your friends have written, or some poetry that you like.
Just post poetry!

I'll start off with a sonnet I wrote for English class last year.
It wasn't specifically for class, but my teacher gave out extra marks to anyone who wrote one, so I did. I was also the only one. >.<
Anyway, I didn't like it much at first, but coming back to it now, I find that I do.
I still don't think it's very good, though...
I hope you enjoy it...

In all the world, love's quite a funny thing;
If a king's love's fleeting and a fool's true,
Then what a fool I am for loving you,
And you, bedecked so regally, are king.
My happiness your small attentions bring,
Though never your thoughts stray from your own sake,
So never will you know of my heart's ache;
It, like a bell, loud does clang, toll and ring.
It's not too late for you to change your mind –
I've not changed mine, although I know I should –
There's still a chance for me to think you kind;
If you wish to take my heart, now know, you could.
Were that you intended me not misled
I would find my love quite unrequited.
