Anytime I Want To

Anytime I want to… 

So you think all I can write is romantic poetry,
well that is not the case I can assure you
I can write poetry on many topics and themes
any time I want to…

Sure, I am in love with the most amazing 
woman in the world, with hypnotic maple eyes 
and a smile that could light up the 
dark side of the moon…
And yes, I find beauty in everything I see, 
from an enchanting honeysuckle sunrise 
to a euphoric star draped twilight sky
on a warm spring evening as fireflies
linger in the cool breeze and we sit together
mesmerized by our desires…
And of course I enjoy a whispering ocean,
melodic waves of turquoise and aquamarine 
gently lapping upon a satin shore
in harmony with crystal azure skies
as my love and I walk along
leaving footprint mosaics in the sand…

But that doesn’t mean all I can write 
is romantic poetry…I can write about other things
anytime I want to…
and I will…pretty soon…maybe tomorrow,
well tomorrows not a good day for me, maybe the next,
but you’ll see… 

:)

I am sure she loves your poems soon to say yada yada yada but that will never happen. Not as long as you bleed romance...lol

Great write Chris. Even with trying to be humorous, your romantic side shows through - at least on this one !

Wow Chris, that alone was a formidable write. Yes, 'romance suits you', it fits tightly within your core, so do not ever discard it, but if you need to express more, trust your pen, it has poetic powers as you just showed us in generously sprinkling this write with the magic of your love:)7+ Amitiés

Chris, you certainly can write more than romantic poetry. You have had many other creative writings. We love it all :) I agree with Tim, write whatever you feel . Have a nice day.
