A bird on a branch
Near the tree top.
Wind started blowing
and he feared he'd drop.
He looked down at the ground
and it gave him a fright.
So he took to the sky
To escape the height.

The frog and the turtle
Sitting on a log
It began to rain
on the turtle and frog.
Their minds got disturbed
They started to fret
And jumped in the pond,
so they wouldn't get wet.

Jane loved Bobby
and Bob loved Jane
But Jane couldn't bare
anymore pain.
Giving her heart
made her scared.
It only got broken,
everytime she dared.
So she pulled back
and pushed him away.
Lived all alone
'til her dying day.
Cried day and night
'til they laid her in the dirt.
Wrapped in sorrow,
so she wouldn't get hurt.

This is so sad, but yet can very much relate to Jane's feelings in this.

So nicely done Larry, I do so enjoy your poetry.

Thank you so much for reading and replying.
I am glad you like my writings.
Thank you soooo much for calling what I write "poetry".   Coming from you...that is quite a compliment.   I will be able to glow from that for several days.  ::smiles::

Stupid Woman...
As for the man...
He did nothing and what does that say?
Was it even worth the tears?
