PAD Challenge day 19: For today’s prompt, write a thing poem.
You are not much to look at
And yet, you stir in me
Passion, allure,
You hold a world
Of Possibility
Of flowered slope
Of hunger
Hope,
Of dreamer's paradise
How is it, you,
Common and plain
Flirts with I-want-you-eyes
And I, completely willing
Cannot
Fight your straight-laced charm
But
Like a lonely woman
I grasp your pro-offered arm
...and then we dance
A strange romance
For you follow my lead
Where I,
A poet,
You,
A pen
In consummate
Rhyme,
Bleed
~Janet Martin
