Love Poem Ode ❤


           All My Love 

My heart went pitty patty that day I saw 

I knew certainly you were cut out for me 

Seems you saw me too I felt the earth shaking 

Beauty did I dream


I'd seen the likes of you strolling on the street 

Alone except for your mate what would he say 

Perhaps he'd like a newer lass for the street 

You could stroll with me. 


Well, I bought you, dear Mustang GT 4.6 

Convertible retirement present for me. 

Now we cruise the streets together way we stroll 

Consummate our love

 - Photo is of  my retirement present from myself to me.   A 1998 Mustang I bought in 2000 and retired in 2001. I've had her, loved her ever since.   The dog is Adi, my loving Beagle.  We were a registered Pet Therapy Pair, Alzheiimer's residents loved us to visit. 

 - I am am linked with "Friday Writings" 187 at  https://poetsandstorytellersunited.blogspot.com/?m=1 -- 

 - This week, we were asked to write a poem of celebration, whether of a person, a thing, an event… Optional extra: do it in the form of a Sapphic ode. 

 - I did write in Sapphic ode.  The verses have four lines, the first three have eleven syllables, the fourth is with five syllables.  These are often used in writing love poems.

She's a beauty, and so is Adi.

Haha ... well done and with Sapphic ode in mind, too! Your love was not fickle. If I read it right, you were wed to this car for many happy years. :)

I still have the car and drive it. We are Texas, they have classified it as a Texas Antique Auto meaning at least 25 years old and I don't drive or use it for work or school. Low insurance rates and I only have to renew its license once every five years.

I know someone who feels like that about his Armstrong Siddeley. I tell him you can't cuddle up to it and it cant keep you warm at night.:)
