Seems to me you can do all those things I wouldn't mind having someone to fluff a pillow for, I'd like to have a real conversation using sugar words and really mean them PS |

I hear where you are coming from, Faith. The title says it all . . . Be Real. or hit the road, Jack. ~ Some people are like a Slinky -- not really good for anything -- but you still can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs. ~ |

2islander2-they say confession is good for the soul so i'm going to come clean...i'm a bit of a rebel when it comes to writing poetry...i know as a poet i'm not supposed to use worn-out sayings...i wrote this one using as many cliches as i could think of that would get my message across...i wanted to see if a poem could still work and be appreciated even when the rules are broken... thank you for your comments...i appreciate them very much There must be a poem in here somewhere. |
