Inspired By Silent One and His 120 Word Contest

2 MINS! ~~~~~~~~~~~ I walk the shore at night. The air, the breeze is right. Not too fierce, a kiss, love felt on my skin, a shove. A shove, my love asks why? I walk, to hide, I try! My heart broke, it hurts bad, I have been blind, so sad. She needs love, I need hers. I walk the shore with fears at my side, I know why, sigh, no tears, yet I cry. Dry, I seek, a thirst quenched. Yet still, my heart feels wrenched. Wrong is wrong, wife be strong, two mins, a life, once long. I now cry to the world, life can't be kept still, furled. Joy its there, locked from hate! Come, wife, my love, were late!

You do this so well, Mick, I do love rhyme but must have a dabble with the other forms some time. Regards Tom.

Haha, Dear Tom. ..........................................................................Sounds like your up for a challenge too .................To reply in rhyme I do, I often do............... ...It's sad that P.S have limitations on its text editors..... ...........No HTML allowed not like its competitors........ You will see what I mean if you find this verse in a.mess.. If you find it tidied then you'll know I've manually made .............................it look its best .................................................. Best wishes, Mick
