Elaine Perrin Poet Rhyme

Behind the Thoracic Cage

Non exchangeable 
biodegradable 
Given time may be changeable 
However 
Forever 
Insatiable 

Thrashing out the tempo of life
Misses a beat when presented with strife 
Within Private chambers 
initials inscribed 
Etched with a promise 
None but one can revive

Quoth Theraven October 2, 2019 at 9:20 AM Elaine, I like this poem you wrote. It really gets to the heart of the matter. I keep mine locked away of course. So it doesn't get broken (again). -Richard Elaine Perrin October 2, 2019 at 1:09 PM Thank you, I’m so glad you enjoyed it :-) So sorry to hear you’ve been hurt :-( I had to kiss quite a few frogs before I found mr right. I hope one day you’ll find happiness xx
