Pat Adams Poet Quatrain

Goodbye and Farewell

Frail boundaries pushed until they pop 
I fall off the fence of protection
Shocked as my readers, but not surprised
With permanent loss of connection!

"Karma's a *****", the battle cry is heard
An apt notion I'm forced to suppose
Tempting fate, you'll eventually fail
To arise with the scent of a rose

Wait a moment, what's this you orate 
I'm not an ejected noodle from the soup?
I guess it's not "goodbye and farewell"
You can just forget all of that poop!

Dale Gregory Cozart August 31, 2017 at 4:45 PM Don't go anywhere!! Write about poop; I like it. I like everything you write so let's stop all this goodbye nonsense. I expect a new Poop poem directly! That's an order! Pat Adams September 1, 2017 at 3:55 PM Demanding dung? At my age it's called getting lucky! Maybe I can "work up" something, but don't be upset if I just "drop" it!...Poot....I mean.....pat
