Free Cee Happily Never After

HAPPILY NEVER AFTER I’m referring to an echo I used to harbor within my heart Back when I believed you were the “happily” to my “ever after” Because you were a beautiful beginning to my every affable start However I do recall a certain sound that used to ricochet off the rafter I can’t recall at all these days the sound that made me smile Could it have been the coo of two doves in love as was I way back then? No, because I only had one dove who never cooed and his name was Mr. Vile Still I remember treasuring that long faded sound all the way back when Alas it wasn’t the sound of a newborn baby begging for his bottle It wasn’t that sound a puppy makes along with his final yawn of the night Nor was it the roar of a hot rod screaming at full tilt and throttle But I am nearly a hundred percent sure it was surely a sound of delight Could it be the secret sound a snowflake makes when it lights upon a lover’s lashes? Or the sound of my wails when you were no longer the “happily” to my “ever after” Perhaps it was the sound when I’d snap your picture midst fantasy and flashes Oh no, now I remember, it was the soothing sound of your lilting laughter © 2012…PHREEPOETREE ~.free cee!~
