Arthur Vaso Poet Light Verse

James Bond the Poet

Double oh Sevens
The gamble of dangerous men
Poets who carry guns
To shoot out the hearts
Of unsuspecting ladies
A single word, a bullet
That can wound or kill the love
Of any careless romance
Yet they fall at the feet
Of mystery and sweet words
And later in the evening
Tears flow from ladies of sadness
Left alone among the sheets of love
The Spy, he could save the world
Yet save not one single love
He grew old and alone
His last thought among the living
I die a lover, and never felt love

Carolyn Devonshire April 19, 2014 at 11:11 AM Dear Arthur, Always loved James Bond and he did break quite a few hearts. How sad the last three lines are. If we never know love, what joy can there be in our hearts. Awesome write, my friend. Love and blessings for a happy Easter weekend, Carolyn Arthur Vaso June 12, 2014 at 9:39 PM Thank you Carolyn, and yes without love there is nothing at all

Eileen Manassian September 29, 2013 at 6:07 AM A favorite, Arthur...WOW! Of course, you have caught the very essence of a poet...A dangerous dangerous man who has license to kill with bullet words. I'm very very impressed! :) Great job...the ending....awesome! Arthur Vaso September 29, 2013 at 12:56 PM Hi Eileen, was sure you would smile reading this one!!

Cindy Lu September 28, 2013 at 10:45 PM You know many people truly that are in the art of creative writing and poetry can relate to this. Ah, the loned poet pours out his heart upon the page.. I too may live my life through without ever truly experiencing love.. I got so much out of your words here. Truly, you are a remarkable writer and I am glad I finally read some of your poetry tonight. Lucinda aka Cindy Lu Arthur Vaso September 29, 2013 at 12:56 PM Thank you so much, that's very kind of you.
