The Romance of Poetry – pub in the fall
Poetry, this love, like two doves up in a tree
Always wanting to go on a reading spree
Never wanting the words on the page to flee
The lines flow down the page like wind through the leaves
The clever rhymes that I read
I hope will never fly away and leave
The poetry brings me from dark to light
As I read every line from left to right
Like that beautiful bird so white
Who lived up in the tree and only flew at night
But living so happy and free up in flight
That is how poetry makes me feel, as if I never need to think twice
Poems are my vice
