Red rode the wind.
Blue held the stage.
Another old story,
please turn the page.

Red grew much older.
Blue's actions weren't good.
Red won the races,
blue was misunderstood.

Red, the hard worker.
Blue wouldn't engage.
Red was more sincere
Blue was angry, in rage.

I raged at the weather,
while she praised the Sun.
I wouldn't stop whining
until daylight was done.

A canyon broad.
A cavern deep.
Which is the one
where Bats will sleep?

My heart,
my love,
forget me not.
Yesterday I sat,
beside you and
you said I
was gone,
as in no
longer here.
You said
you love me.
Is it a sham?
Then you say,
"this is my man."

From first glance she
appeared sound of mind,
but I was mistaken.
A beautiful challenge,
appearing to me,
but I loved another
more lovely than she.

Please tell me true,
for I have found
I am missing you.
All your wonderful joy
when we were a
young girl and a boy.
What dreams we had
no longer our reverie,
now, at this time
just a missing memory.

A shrill cry pierced
the night air,
sending a shiver up
this aged spine.
What noise therein lies,
brought pain again
and then the sighs,
from love, now gone
to a place, awaiting
a companions return?

First was the light,
springing from her eyes.
No longer young,
now more mature.
She still attracted those,
who fancied them close.
Say not the words,
stuck in the mouth,
for all I know,
were on their way South.

I'll see you tomorrow,
no matter what I've said,
unless a strange message
explains I may be dead.

Sadness seeps from
out her eyes,
as she talks to me
with words of sighs.
"I miss my dad"
who passed away.
I want to see him
now, here today.
"My fathers gone,
and so is mom.
I am alone ,
no one to look after me.
Why can I not see
my loved ones?"

Perhaps, I should buy a new boat.
I could go on the water
to see if my words float.
There is always a frightening time,
when I worry most about the words
and if I can have them rhyme.
I like the words I use to be,
to sound melodic, have rhythm
and be a word song to me.

Few words
I see,
is love
for you,
and me.
