from this chair,
I reckon she's still with us
O key! O anchor!
weep not for me, in your boudoir
have you realized you are mine

This is awesome. I could feel the love in these words. LOL My mind pictured all of this.

I am never here
There is nothing wrong with me
I've not lost my mind
What little of it I have
I love you, do you hate me

Spiros,

I could relate to this
on several levels.

Thank you, my friend.

.thanks TDA32, Jerry and Karilea..>>much appreciate your having read and the comments
..Jerry, indeedy-doo..your poem-comment
may be considered a tanka; it's interesting;
you know, Tanka is a lifestyle..but, then, there's kyoka--the opposite of tanka; the sarcastic five-liners which purposefully
break the many rules of Tanka..maybe what
you wrote is a kyoka..always a pleasure..>>spiros
