Notes About The Poem

Watching Movies - Word Play

What place not home do I love most of all?
As soon as weekends come, I have to go
To this place! Usually,  it’s at the mall.
Can you guess where I go? It’s to the show!
How eagerly I wait for Friday when
I get to see the latest films. What bliss!
New movies come; I bring some treats, and then,
Good times! For all my life I have done this.

My movie habit started in my youth.
On tv then, there was not much, so I
Viewed movies every chance I got. The truth
Is I could watch them all day long, and my
Escape into them has been happening
Since Spartacus first made my spirit sing!
