Old Shattered Pieces

Old chair shattered pieces trash now I'm envious of my love's new chair For he softly lays his sleepy brow Upon that brown leather without a care I'm envious of my love's new chair For he snuggles down close sleeps Upon that brown leather without a care Rests, dreams, and quietly talks peeps For he snuggles down close sleeps In this big man new leather recliner Rest, dreams, and quietly talks peeps This big man who rest then is kinder In this big man new leather recliner He caresses the leather gently This big man who rest then is kinder While he rest I watch him intently He caresses the leather gently For he softly lays his sleepy brow While he rest I watch him intently Old chair shattered pieces trash now

Congratulations on your big no. 2. I'm finding you in the winner circle very often. Lovely poem. I have my man's big blue leather chair and I sit in my smaller version and still see him sitting there. Love, Joyce

I have a recliner but it is getting a bit worn down. I like what you did with the pantoum form. It is a Malaysian form originally I believe. Peace & Blessings Matthew Anish

Cool Pantoum Sara. Good luck in Dr Ram's Contest. Thanks for your comment. But Sara, without first a change of enought of the American's people's hearts, no, an election will not change a world ran by carnal minds of greed. I am praying for a miracle. Smile. Agape, Moses
