Nice one, Maggie!
Thanks, Andy! Your closing line was a great spark.
Thank you.
Let's see if I can match up...
This poem just might be about you
If you only took the time
To look beyond the obvious
And read between the lines.
I've said them many times before
In as many different ways
Dressed-up in poetic language
The things I yearn to say
In the hope that you would recognise
The sincerity of my words
But you appear blind to my endearments
As they so often go unheard
So what's the point in bothering:
Why put myself through this stress?
Because I believe most earnestly
That you are the route to my happiness.
So I offer yet another poem
That just might be about you
And I'll sit and wait and wonder
What you are going to do...
Girls Who Wear Glasses
Girls who wear glasses
Are seen a geek or a nerd,
Which is the most ridiculous thing
That I have ever heard!
Girls who wear glasses
Are actually sexy and cool
Whether they’re petite little pixies
Or long-legged and tall.
Girls who wear glasses
Look intelligent and smart
A look that has always
Gone straight to my heart
Girls who wear glasses
Have always done it for me
Which why ended up marrying
A glasses-wearing girl, you see!
NOTE: this gorgeous young woman is NOT my ex!

A lot of what I write is in the form of blank verse, lacking in rhyme although I stick to a strict metre. Many people do not consider blank verse to be 'proper' poetry, and it is clear that those who count on this site think that my scribblings have very little merit. It is well to have the bubble of one's self delusion punctured, but the humiliation of the realisation of one's lack of ability still hurts.
There are one or two supercilious idiots on SS who think they walk on water. They will go out of their way to patronise and belittle anybody they take a disliking to.
IGNORE THEM!
Your contributions to this site are as welcome and as interesting as anybody else's. Let nobody tell you or try to convince you of anything differently!
And, as my sig says, "those who mind don't matter"!
