Poems Have Their Verses

Poems have their verses Blinded by the light Stood outside to stare Counting clouds in groups of two If only you were there Dreams may come in circles Rounding out the bend Ovals in a cornered box Wanting you again Laughing through the sadness Easing past the fear Bandages of cotton call Wishing you were here Singles by the double Threes improve the score Adding up the right and wrong Needing you once more Pens run out of ink Pencils break their lead Chalkboards need to be erased I’ll love you instead Poems have their verses Often they do rhyme It really matters not to me As long as you are mine

Top of The Evening to you Chris. This is stunning. Yes they do and then some. May your words and expressions always be endless not only for you but for your reader. Honestly. On the flip side. If the pen and ink run out try a new concept and modern way called the keyboard. I've heard its grand and works well. Just don't drop anything on it however. You are amazing Chris. And yes, thank you for all your reviews of earlier today on my page. Have a great night and wonderful weekend.

A keyboard? Hmmm, I have one on my piano. Writing poetry on my piano, what a novel idea. :) Just kidding my good friend. Thank you Lisa, just having a little romantic rhyming fun on a slow Friday afternoon. I am thrilled you liked it and so appreciate your kindness and friendship. You words mean so much to me.

I love that every last line of every last stanza has love to make up for all the faults in the previous lines :) As long as she is yours it doesn't matter what happens. Beautiful poetry my friend.
