HE TRIED…!
–
Literary gentleman tried.
To work with suggestions supplied…
Love poetry
His cup of tea,
But more for reading than write.
–
No words were coming forth,
Didn’t dare let his mind take its course…
Envisioning
One onto which he could spring,
Vain daydreams his only source.
–
Young love left far behind,
His own barely brought to mind…
The man was stuck
Having no truck,
To use in his poetic grind.
–
It’s hard to think young
When the waffles are over-done…
Having caught
Romantic life shot,
Even to use of the tongue!
–
His efforts came out poor,
Self-centered rant, to be sure…
Try as he might
He botched the red light,
So results were foolish but pure.
