The Sordid Affair

There's money___then there's love Looking back at him __desiring Brief encounters above Husband's comments deriding So handsome fire__home ice Guilt, shame, remorse____desire One last glimpse maybe twice Marriage but children__can't transpire Inner turmoil__wishing Should I walk away now Turn turn around running We'll say the wedding's vow

It does not pay to fool around once married, always get caught sooner or later..thanks on sheep...coyotes are cowards, don't be afraid of them...takes 4 to catch a cotton tail..I have a caught millions of them on the ranch...only bad when they have rabbies?? Danny

i like this write Sara, i really do.one feels love for another, though they aren't his/hers.and yet, it's still love.this problem can have meanings that are so perplexed at times that mean more beyond the issue. you feel sorrow, is this wrong? the question they should ask themselves is what was this for?... awesome poem Sara.just great. -Always&Forever Lynette
