Larry Bradfield Poet Rhyme

A Broken Heart In Retrospect

Let us sit upon the ground and talk of broken hearts.
We'll drink wine from a paper cup and smile now and then.
Was it the first or second time that broke into parts
A heart so young and eager to please and please again ?

My heart is old and scarred now and it no longer aches.
Fill my cup and I will tell you just how a heart breaks.
