HALF N HALF
One of the old photos, fixed to the wood,
In my living room, it's stare is good,
Its aura is benign, it speaks of love,
I just smile and nod, cause i'll have none of
Its quiet verbose boast, in telling,
There is too much abstracting,
In its sublime stating,
I prefer what i've read of love;
Patient, kind, and responsible, that's love;
See why i smile,
And don't reply,
If he is my better half
Pity me! left, with the worst half

Sweet, simple narrative--so much can be told thru our photos. Love the song too, fits the moment captured in the story. Thanks for sharing Gillena!

Ha, I love it. Very clever piece.
ReplyDeleteOld photos do tell such wonderful stories. What a sweet story you've told.
ReplyDeleteLove is what you need in the moment, warmth, compassion, grace, desire... at the end of the day, no one wants to be left with the worst half.
ReplyDeleteI too smiled at the close ~
