Fare Thee Well

To all the girls I've loved before You know I always wanted more But I could always see Your love was not for me But for a soulmate you adore In dreams you found that love can grow With someone you don't even know And set my love aside To be the blushing bride In dreams where only you can go I'm glad you found the time to share The moments when we were a pair Please live an happy life As someone else's wife But know that I shall always care

For the first time I am reading a poem from you other than limerick...... but clothed in limerick form. This generous love, free of possession, I really liked dear friend !

I have told my son several times that if she cares more about her happiness than his happiness, then she doesn't love him . . . ..

Actually, these are rather sweet, Rico. Hmmm...new experiences?

Is this really you, Rico? It’s a great poem, but in a style I’ve never seen you use before. Branching out, eh? More power to you!

Several Soupers have written poems regretting their one-night stands, so I thought I should write to say they were really appreciated! Aloha!
