Notes About The Poem

The Blonde In the Library

She contemplated life
Love
Quantum physics and religion
La raison d'être
The fact she could not cook
Her knowledge all well balanced on top of her head
Yet there she was puzzled
Of life and the dead
The whys and what’s
The how’s and the when’s
All that is not known
The library after all so Gothic and vast
In contemplation she began to mentally fast

There was one book though
In the midst of them all
About lovers and love
About the depth of it all
They called it Art
Arthur Vaso's tell all
Of passion and reason
Of intellectual treason
Her gaze exposed the whole in her heart
Imagine from a book
She discovered a new Art!

How wonderfully clever of you! :) I can't even diss on it being a blonde reference because you've bound it all together in the lines and pages. Well done, Art!!! Big Hugggs. Cap'n Deb ( ps. Thanks for the visit)
