Putting Words in Your Mouth

Poetry a la Carte Customized Poetry

poetry a la carte!

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
This poem sucks.
Shame on you.

Lost for words? Enlist the help of the smart people behind Poetry a la Carte and give the gift of verse to someone special this year.

Simply fill out a short questionnaire to provide a little insight into your relationship and they’ll put pen to paper to create a personalized poem that will touch the heart of a friend, godmother or lover. The long-lasting present can either be e-mailed to you to send as you wish or written in frame-worthy calligraphy. Either way, feel free to pass it off as your own work and take all the credit.

You’re a poet.

And you didn’t even know it.
