v - v - - - To Them, to Us

 

8 - a - - - He wished she would have said to him

6 - b - - - Please won't you spend the night

8 - c - - - Since she didn't that was okay

6 - b - - - Another day alright 

.
2 - d - - - Don't cry,

6 - d - - - Her inner being sigh

2 - c - - - Her way,

6 - e - - - Head to keep her heart mum .

8 - a - - - Meanwhile the two, heads in a swim 

6 - e - - - Await, right time would come

Today I'm linked with Kerry at the "Real Toads, Play it Again, Toads" (link)

Her model for me was from an earlier Challenge,Saturday, December 29, 2012 (link) to write a poem after the Robber Herrick's stanza form.
,
[The earlier instructions were that the first 4 lines follow the 8,6,8,6 (or 4 feet, 3 feet, 4 feet, 3 feet of iambic stress pattern) of Common Measure rather closely, but then the poet introduces a variation in his stanza from lines 5 to 8, of 2, 6, 2, 6 and then back to 8, 6 to close lines 9 and 10.  The Ryme scheme is to be abcb ddce ae.]
