The day of love and candy
the day that is quite fine and dandy
You could write a poem or an essay
or even make a survey
about this Valentines Day
The day where people dress nice
and chocolate will suffice
to show their love on this day
this day that is like a dove
This Valentines Day
I am the sweet of the air I pass at the bakery
I don’t stop
I’d walk a million miles for you Phil
and give you no roll or cookie
just my heart
Two good poems here!
@Daze I like your poem
@anon84763962 thank you.
well I wanted to write something
sometimes you put something down
and it seems so permanent
when everything else is fleeing
maybe why we do it
less than one minute poem
if it doesn’t come easily, it was never there
That’s very quotable @Daze, I really like that.
you’re one of the most supportive people on this site
glad to know ya in cyberspace
Or it’s not ready to be born yet.
Some of my best poetry would wander around, peek in and out of corners in my mind for days or weeks. But when it was ready to come out, it was always a matter of just minutes. Trying to write it before then killed it.
yeah, I get it
sometimes mundane tasks you start getting oh wow moments
people don’t think it takes work, it does
Wow, thanks @Daze that means a lot!
I’m glad to know you too!
brief encounters
flowers in her hair
there’s no-one there
stuck in a free fall and
i haven’t got a prayer
and from the corner of my eye haunts
empty promises
wasted opportunities
in lack lustred excitement
our eyes meet and nerves touch
i look away
too ashamed to meet her gaze
for what am i?
but a lowly schizo
alas there was no beau that day
and now the flowers have all gone
the problem was flowers in her hair
she would never make the first move
look for women in leather
