The Three Lines Only



Wish I were intelligent enough to write poetry in 
three or four lines.
Anything over that? A poetic crime!
Eight lines is acceptable if I'm quirky or cute?

Or use imagery like, uh,the moon is in a strawberry 
boot?
Or a lovely butterfly flew up my sexy snoot?

Stars are a must here as we all know.
That word alone steals any poem and drags in
Drooling.
I hope you all realize, I am just fooling))

Heck! We only live once.
