PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

They’re all so pretty;

smiling all the time.

It’s great to be welcome

and I look forward

to seeing them.

I get the warm greetings;

the hugs and a few kisses

but they’re just being kind

to an old man.

I see you winking at me

thinking I’m a sly old man;

suspecting I’m secretly rich.

Thanks for giving me credit

to think that I could

but they’re all just friends.

I don’t have the energy

or the ambition.

I need a nap

just thinking about it.
