Oh
As I recall
You wouldn’t look
At me twice

Thinking boring
The equivalent
Of being nice

But now at last
With your nectar gone
To insects more capable
Of disappearing then
You’ve suddenly discovered
What a prince I am

So very well
The two of us
Will play along

As if
Should you flower
Yet once again

I’d have any chance
In comparison

To those champions
Of your youth

Thank you Bruce

Actually
I think, while not PC,
it's one of the best things
I've lately written.

Thanks again


John

I got a kick out of this, John. A very interesting response. Sometimes I think there comes a point when some things are better remembered than indulged.

This may be a more common scene than one realizes.
A write with insight.
