 I'll love you till next Friday,
 I swear I will be true,
 I won't be like those Monday guys 
 who are no good for you .
 The Tuesday ones are fly-by-night,
 they'll promise you the  earth,
 but come the dawn they will be gone
 so give them a wide berth.
 Wednesday men fill you with hope,
 could this be mister right?
 Your dreams lay, strewn like shattered glass
 before the end of night.
 Now, Thursday, he could be the one,
 four days in, a good sign,
 but four days isn't faithfulness
 not five of them, like mine.
 Saturday men, just count them out,
 all football, clubs and beer,
 the Sunday ones will let you down
 until payday gets near.
 But me, I'm your man Friday,
 and with me you won't go wrong,
 just you and me, steadfast we'll be-
 until Monday comes along x

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed. Also, Blessed New Year to you and your family.

No comments? I can't believe it because you are so good at this poetry thing. Didn't Tarzan have a man Friday? Now I am showing my age but I don't care. Don't forget to swing by if I ever post a poem again.
