T’was
a melody of
sweet love,

a poem written
by the smitten,

words weaved
for all to see
such awesome
symmetry,

but it ran on
too long,
and I got
lost.

Distracted,
my eyes
averted to
brighter skies,
and the melancholy
of his poetry
faded from my mind.

T’was as verse
and several stanza
too long,
so I have moved on
and am currently
enjoying the poetry
of nature’s glowing
glory.
