I think of kidnapping you and locking you inside the meters of my poetry you'd be in every phrase of every poem I would write, imprisoned within the difficult to make coherent the sonnets ahhh . . . you would shine there I'd take you with me to the Mardi Gras (Throw me something, Mister!) Even in the raunchiest villanelle (Show me yer . . .) a prisoner of mine you would be inside a love-struck poem that's where you'd really find your fame explaining to the world how much I really do love you if it rained we'd go puddle splashing buck necked during the Tarpon Rodeo down in Grand Isle you'd capture those fishermen's hearts only briefly though for you are mine all mine in the words of this poem when we were alone together I'd play the oboe for you (I'd take lessons) a special love song I had written just for you yes, I think of kidnapping you and locking you inside the meters of my poetry ©February 3, 2013 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways . . . ~*~ |

Jerry, unless you're writing from another's perspective (which I doubt) you seem (over last few poems and especially this one) well smitten, my friend. Either way, this is one of your all time best in my opinion. Well done, my friend jimmy |
