PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

ever closer comes the reality of tomorrow

as she forces me to wear her pale, ivory shift

of hope and promise

and the too gentle repeating of the words

I do and until death us do part somehow softly

entrance my unadjusted mind

I face myself with only one question will I so soon say

nay to any mere drivel over such unattached bother

or will my acquired status symbol of Single hood

from days long since past

besiege me out of respect for the wishes of the

Almighty Father

and will his prayer filled path as so stated simplify

matters that now only cloud my thoughts with

complete impossibility

or will I be placed in yet another time and place that

I am not so sure that I'll wish or want to be

its after all

all in his hands so I'll try not to worry...........
