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.

 - 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. 

In Uncertain Times

 

     Resignation 

Resignation, it's a word I never knew 

Never knew, does that word now raise its mean head 

Troubles ahead peaking  around the corner 

See THEIR ugly heads 

Start with Mother Nature and her Climate Change 

Papa Politic make up his mind he can't 

Aunts and Uncles are dabbling Economy 

Makes the Preachers swear 

And others are nuzzling in should we resign 

Then give up hope, dig our graves, find our shotguns 

Not for me I'll wait and see if Better looms 

Things change and adapt
