Special Assignment
So I am writing this poem for my mama Dane.
If I were my husband Ross this would be such a pain.
For her sake I will do my best.
I will put my writing skills to the test.
This isn't hard,
as I go through each line level.
This special assignment will be complete before I rest.
Once complete I will not have a pest.
"A penny saved is a penny earned", I like money.
You wouldn't believe that I live in Germany.
I pray I may stay dilligent in writting so I can say, "yay", when I'm done.
I'll keep out my puns.
God blessed the broken road that led me to my love, Ross.
He has blessed us both with such a fondness.
It is astonishing how unbelievably wonderful our wondrous love is.
It is not fun writting this,
But I shall be happy when my eyes can look back to games.
For my patience with this poem is quickly running on empty.
Very soon I shall leave this to have fun.
"As we near the end" I will end 20 lines from where I had begun.
