Shirley Gribble Poet Free verse

All the Nice Girls

All the Nice Girls

I'd like to sail the Seven Seas
With seven sailors hearty,
Seven ports in seven days,
And seven nights to party.

My every wish would be fulfilled
For me by crewmates, seven,
And when friends ask me where I've been,
I'll say "in seventh heaven!"

Jiril Clemons June 8, 2014 at 11:41 AM How poetically slick, Shirley. Brilliant in its structure of seven. Beautifully carefree, and entertaining. Enjoyable overall. Check out some of my poems. Might find some you like. Peace. Shirley Gribble June 9, 2014 at 5:22 AM Thank you for that Jiril! I look forward to reading some of your poetry, first I have baking to do - expecting visitors tomorrow. Don't you just hate it when everyday things get in the way of poetry?! Shirley x
