I thought you were a man With an angelic smile. I followed after your halo Year after year, mile after mile. I loved your loving heart And the touch of gentle hand. I followed after your halo Over gravel, meadows, sea, and land. Your laugh made me so happy A mirthful twinkle in your eye. I followed after your halo Not knowing that you would lie. The words came to you so easy Everything just seemed to fit. I followed after your halo And saw it had slipped just a bit. By: Shawna R. Holder © August 2005 |

Yes, nicely done Shawna. Your repetition ended with a TiTlec surmise. reminds me of, "Sam's Fish-Tale- (Triolet)" copyright dwgpoet 2007 |

perfection or the lack thereof is in the eyes of the beholder. however, if memory serves me correctly,the last time a man was perfect, he was nailed to a cross! |

Well, I've always there was only one perfect man on this earth...and they crucufied Him. Didn't really expect perfection but some things just blind side ya. I got over it. Wasn't as devastating as it could have been. |

yep, been blind-sided a couple times myself...think i know what your saying...its the suddenness, the suprise,or the unexpected...kinda like a fall...the fall is not so bad but the suprise jolt at end kinda smarts a bit. |

Wonderful poem, I wish mine could reach that standard. Alas, my poems are just not good enough. The last time sumone was perfect,he was sacrificed to save our sins. Darkness is only the lack of light... |
