Rico Leffanta Poet Limerick

Fare Thee Well

To all the girls I've loved before
You know I always wanted more
But I could always see
Your love was not for me
But for a soulmate you adore

In dreams you found that love can grow
With someone you don't even know
And set my love aside
To be the blushing bride
In dreams where only you can go

I'm glad you found the time to share
The moments when we were a pair
Please live an happy life
As someone else's wife
But know that I shall always care

Blessings. xxoo Rico Leffanta January 16, 2022 at 9:58 AM I have told my son several times that if she cares more about her happiness than his happiness, then she doesn't love him . . . ..

L Milton Hankins January 14, 2022 at 1:00 PM Actually, these are rather sweet, Rico. Hmmm...new experiences? Rico Leffanta January 16, 2022 at 9:56 AM Just trying to make some ladies feel happier about their one-night stands . . .

Tom Cunningham January 14, 2022 at 11:23 AM Hang on to those happy memories Rico. Tom Rico Leffanta January 17, 2022 at 10:44 AM Mahalo, but busy making new ones! Aloha!

Ilene Bauer January 14, 2022 at 10:16 AM Is this really you, Rico? It’s a great poem, but in a style I’ve never seen you use before. Branching out, eh? More power to you! Rico Leffanta January 14, 2022 at 10:18 AM Several Soupers have written poems regretting their one-night stands, so I thought I should write to say they were really appreciated! Aloha!
