Notes About The Poem

Poiema is a Greek word from which we derive our English word poetry. In the Book of Ephesians, we [God’s people] are compared to His [poiema] workmanship

 

 

 

Poiema


To my sweetest May:

It is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore my feelings for you.
I enjoy the polite interchange in conversations we have between us.
I also enjoy your company as you choose to stay late voluntarily and 
           offer to help so we can further engage in conversation.
I can’t overlook your beauty, as I find myself attracted to you.
However, this is an unrequited love
This truly would be a May-December romance.
From poiema we derive our word poetry
As a woman I applaud God’s creation of you in His poetry.
Your long flowing glory and brown eyes. 
That black dress your wore a while ago knocked me out 
           because you’re a knock-out.
What a beautiful woman, I must admire from afar. 
Gosh, you’re sexy.

Unrequitedly Yours 
December
