Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Courtship

Cupid sharpens his weapon
    Firms up his grip
  An arrow pierces two hearts
    ~ Man embarks on courtship 

  As for success
    Cupid cares not
  His, to light the fire
    Theirs to tend 'til it's out

Panagiota Romios May 1, 2023 at 6:09 PM A lovely couplet Gershon. Cupid is quite a master. Pangie Gershon Wolf May 1, 2023 at 6:35 PM Cupid sure ain't stupid!! Thanks, P!

Michelle Faulkner May 1, 2023 at 4:16 PM 'An arrow pierces two hearts' - funny I never thought of it like that - cupid's a double dealer :) Gershon Wolf May 1, 2023 at 6:40 PM If Cupid had longer arrows, he'd pierce 3 hearts! ~ Just sayin'

Sara Kendrick May 1, 2023 at 9:58 AM Ahh!! So Cupid isn't going to take the blame for thing going wrong. Good to be far away from that scene anyway. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara Gershon Wolf May 1, 2023 at 6:39 PM Yeah, that 'scene' seems so silly now, doesn't it? ( But it's real to the participants!) ... And I sure enjoy your page, Sara!
