I Have Forgiven You But It Will Never Be The Same Poet Rhyme

.timeless.

Thorns on roses
ticks, fleas on 
kittens
no help for the poor
snowball with no mittens
cereal that's milkless.
food with no taste
no seconds in minutes
elementary art without paste
artists with no vision
siblings without fighting
t.v. with no color
cake without icing
talking without voices
no roots beneath trees
by understanding rainfall
you understand me.
