Davin Payne Poet Rhyme

Track 18

thanks for the tea, heres something about me
nothing beats poetry, sitting underneath a tree
thankin' my family for a strong identity
people watching cause its free, beauty in the scene
has me staring with a cheese, a smile at what i see
possibly a dream,  caught up mentally 
imagining a few things, with this human being
who has the sweetest energy, soulfood like collard greens
all fools falling means I'm really dumber than I seem
being intelligent isn't just from memory
its handling impermanence light and sensibly
and lady I'm feeling your sultry melodies
we'd be crowded if its three, sit and be my company
must be a chemistry major cause the reactions meant to be
the love we can achieve, is safe from any thieves
 hold em from my queen, hearts tucked into my sleeve

Vicky Tsiluma December 28, 2012 at 2:04 AM Beautifully written Davin! Soothing. Your take on intelligence is refreshing, too often we place value in book knowledge and ignore life's lessons. A strong identity and love in your life - those are ingredients for contentment. Well done!
