Would You Love Me If I Wasn't a Poet? POTD

In a pretty rose garden we were having tea, the butterflies were kissing the flowers and the birds were singing. I asked my dear friend of twenty years, Would you love me if I wasn't a poet? A big smile came over her winkled face, then a twinkle in her eye appeared. Oh yes my friend, your humor is what makes you so very dear. You had your humor before you became a poet, your writings bring it to life for all to read.

Congratulations Paula on the honour of POTD, I’m sure some of our poetry carries on through into our personalities, for it must be part and parcel of who we are and what we mean to others, cheers David
