Kurt Philip Behm Poet Rhyme

Three Words

If you could lock up three words
to keep forever,
that were yours and yours alone

What three would you choose
that were not ‘I Love You,’
your heart to save and own

Three magical words
to live within,
now yours forever more

Three magical words
to light the way
—and open every door

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2020)

Daniel Turner February 19, 2020 at 1:36 PM The three words i use most can not be printed. I have an extensive vocabulary but I rarely use it. I tend to be impatient and vulgar. It generally gets the response I am looking for:) Kurt Philip Behm February 19, 2020 at 1:38 PM Thanks for the warning :-)
