Maud Poems


Premium MemberMultiloquent Maud

Multiloquent maud incessantly talks all day
Nonsensical chatter by the way
I have to tune her out, for she hurts my ears
That she will notice is not one of my fears

Maud the Maid

For suddenly I was looking at mother again. Trace
Her line of sight and find a girl, a valedictorian far
From the right, uneasy about where her cast eyes
Spell in

THE LOVE SONG OF MAUD GONNE
Look to my eyes and know the truth
can't you see it's deep?
But all this love I have for you
it will have to keep.

I cannot say just why this is,
but this will have to do,
that I could never take you from
a world in need of you.

Keep writing such sweet words for
