and for each one heard a reason
when the reason was no season at all.

And it took a year to reckon
that it does no good to beckon
when to beckon is to reckon a fall.

I was watching flowers blossom
sitting down just playing possum
when a possum took my blossom away.

And the empty space I’m feeling
has now left me believing
when believing keeps the feeling at bay.

It’s a notion that I’m getting
now the room is up for letting
when the letting and the getting’s a treat.

It’s the perfume of the laughter
and the honey that I’m after
when the after makes the laughter so sweet.

You have made a great impression on me.

Witty, cute, cheeky & a one of a kind writing style.

This is the kind of poetry I beg to read!

Well done.
