There once was a couple,
a couple of lovers,
~
and Oh! how these lovers could love;
but not to each other.
~
Oh! what a pity!
they should’ve been together,
~
but Alas! and a shame
that they missed one another.
~
Oh! how these lovers would love.

What a shame!

yea huh
♡
Well, I must say, that’s not what I expected but was pleasantly surprised 🙂 Good one Marvin! Blessings, Terri
A shame, but a beautiful poem. I wonder how many people walk past someone they’d love if they just spoke to them?
All too real. K.
yes, what a shame. maybe it’s a breakdown in communication.
Great poem – thanks for sharing
This not just with lovers but with friends is so very commonplace. And you are right, merely one passed word can change the circumstances. Lovely,
Red.
In another space or time, perhaps?
Oh, how these lovers would love.
When they find each other.
I like this piece very much. Exceptional! 🙂
if only perhaps they were pleased with what they had instead of other lovers…then maybe they could truly love…
Marvin,
Giving is one thing but giving with passion is the ultimate! Great verse!
