Sweet Thang

Shufflin in the doorway
hat in hand, silly smile
askin fo forgivness...
“Been thinkin all day
at work, couldn’t stop
thinkin i shore am sorry.”

“Canna y’all forgive me,”
my sweethart...
“I shore be sorry.”
“Donna know whys
I acted da fool,
iz zit ok, honey?”

“Man, I be dyin
fo one o your smiles
maybe jus a teensy, baby.”
“Mama, canna y’all
give a yo Daddy
jus a little sugar?”

“I be tellin ya
thata itz my own fault
shouldnna hollered at you.”
“Iz a right sorry now
I a picked y’all some flowers
juz fo you, Mama!”

“Do y’all think
I coulda juz get a bite
maybe to hold me o’re, baby?”
Shufflin in the doorway
hat in hand, silly smile
askin fo forgivness...

Bleeding,

First of all your poetry is wonderful.  It's a very good emotional piece.  I see no need for apology.  A work of art is what it will be in my eyes for eternity.  Great Job.< !signature-->

Daniel; This a lovely poem of humility and love. I enjoyed the way it is written. Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.
