That You Loved Better

That You Loved Better I was once in same writer's group that Rose Ann Sinay is in. Now I am part of Katherine Moore's Poetry Revisited. Sorry you don't like poetry or poems in your publication. Remember Merton's Self-fulfilling Prophecy. Can Google it if you want to. What if in your paper my poem were to appear Reminding you how heavenly it is being here Then for a while on trip went far away To see what other countries did have on display. Of course, always compare them with my very own Trying not to feel strange or all alone But visiting a country waiting for me to see Appearing there as a form of another reality. Their way of doing things does differ from ours Royalty and other forms of powers and ivory towers Forms of government often trying to accomplish Certain tasks and what it is that you may wish. Curiosity will cure things until they are satisfied Until eventually again you will abide Back home which for you had been best You always loved better then all of the rest.
