And How

“Oh boy! See that girl! Gee…she’s cute.” “I like his look! Will he look this way?” The half of love will ink a card, on that red date. A pair of lips slip onto a pair of lips. The kiss, so nice! The knee will bow wow wow, ask to take his ring - she says, “And how!” Kids in tow, will not slow his or her beat. Ann is wild like her dad. Bob has her blue eyes. Zero in the nest - sad but true. Still, love is. Old age, the hand of time - the sky is too high. The girl does cry, or the boy, when left sans a warm hand. Or to die is kind - both fly at the same time.

Too touchy. I am whelmed. In last phase I can’t realise why we carry so many emotional bonds , being bound to leave everything ! Blessings

You cover a lot of ground here, Kim! Zowie! .. Partners live and survive men usually remarry but not always….my Dad went first. Mom was an outgoing person but she did not remarry or wanted to. She got on with her life. Three cheers for her smiles and good nature. Pangie xx

"Or to die is kind - both fly at the same time." Parting is not always sweet sorry. My wish, that I go last. Not wanting her to hurt without me. Lovely, real poem -- you are a true poet/poetess (I guess, politically correct -- what a new world!) -- outstanding write!

That’s the one thing my Dad is glad for. He knows how much he hurts and is glad mom didn’t have to deal with that.
