A Poem

I never write poetry. My mom and my brother are really good poets but I just wasn’t blessed with that talent. However, I recently wrote a poem for my brother and I didn’t hate it so I thought I would share it with you. Do you like to write poems?tumblr_mpc5eht1OB1ru6nd4o1_1280

Regulus

rocking in his wooden boat

treading water

barely afloat

dashes of hope

 

eyes sparkling as he glides

currents change

no where to hide

 

fishes for love

throws them all back

hand in glove

heart attack

 

sees the moon as a bowl of milk

drinks it down

feels the guilt

 

swaying gently with the waves

contemplating

final daze

 

how did he get off course?

wasting hours

tour de force

 

the wind slowly chaps his skin

shivers at night

just let him win.
