PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

in even the least lovely of weather

try if at all possible to stay together

in the sand you wrote

'Be Mine Forever?'

I grinned my yes

and said hooray!

then the sun quietly walked us back

home

you left me for another the very next

day

Happily ever afters are such a bust

or rather you are too fickle

for such a gushing declaration's

display

oh, and the sun wanted me to tell you

it hates you too by the way...........
