I Wanna Write a Poem

I Wanna Write a Poem

I wanna write a poem about,
how in God we trust.
About getting our piece of the pie,
and eating the crust.
I wanna write a poem about,
Opportunity knocking on your door,
and learning to be careful
what you wish for.
I wanna write a poem about
going to work and coming home alone,
and although you don’t know anyone,
you hope there’s messages on your phone.
About going out and meeting someone,
getting married having kids,
and wishing you were a lone poem.
I wanna write a poem about
people with a kind heart,
how God put you in their way
and them doing their part.
I wanna write a poem about
being in a room full of fine women.
Perfume in the air...
And the happy feeling I get
because my wife isn’t there...
I wanna write a poem about
Women, who really understand,
that men are the weaker sex,
and will perform on demand.
I wanna write a poem about
having no fear of the dark,
walking the streets alone
making it on our own.
And I wanna write a poem about
the homeless actually finding a home.
I wanna write a poem.
...
I wanna write a poem.

It seems to me that you DID write a poem about many important things. Well done, Robert (Bobby?). You did indeed open the gate with your pen.

The being alone part might have something to do with that room full of women *lol*. You did this really well, our strengths and weakness in symphonic collision.
