Pedal Tone

Insistent I can be as they

("She'll never take a rest," they say);

indignant in my restless way,

I put this thing to bed today.

 

"She'll never take a rest," they say.

I laid it in the ground today!

What first was bright grew tired and gray;

I laid it in the ground today.

(c) K.E. Parks, 2012

i know it's a bit silly and may feel slightly lyrical.  that's alright, i'm sort of making fun of myself. EDIT: my notifications tell me this is my 2nd poem trending in 2 days? is this just like a normal thing now? I'm kinda super happy people are reading, anyway. x
