Mark Koplin Poet Rhyme

Who I Am

My name is Mark Koplin 
and it has been since birth
My dear Mother and Father
were the salt of the Earth

Some days I am ornery
and not real discreet
Other days I’m like candy
and just a little bit sweet

I can flow just like water
even when I’m ice cold
but when the temperature rises
that’s when you’ll see me get bold

I can be very loyal
and ease the pain you’ve been through
or I can be evil as hell
It just depends upon you

Barbara Barry-Nishanian July 9, 2022 at 3:55 PM Your poems were sent to me by PS, I enjoyed them all, and this one too. Hope to get to know you better. I like that you are outspoken. A friend recently. told me not to be so straight forward in spiritual truths I expose, cause truths exposes lies world excepts. Maybe I'll become balanced like you. Like your style!

Jenna Logan May 21, 2022 at 11:02 AM That's what makes you such a fine sheriff, Mark. You're a fair judge of character, loyal, and always ready to set things straight.
