Prompt: Write something with the number 22 as a domanant theme, topic, or idea in honor of WdC's 22nd birthday celebration.
Written for "The Whatever Contest." "The Whatever Contest -- Closed for Now"
Word/Line Count:
The number 22 is a double deuce.
No matter which way you add it,
It equals four; it's now time to even the score.
The terrible two's have won this round;
They did so with hardly a sound.
You're twice as lucky with 22;
It's now time to tie your shoe.
Your chances are doubled, don't you agree?
When you're partnered with someone like me.
Twenty-two chances to keep it alive;
Reckon it's time to do the jive.
Bask in the sun with your attire,
Baby, it's you that I desire,
You're the one I'd like to inspire.
Twenty-two brings out the beauty in you.
Your embrace lightens my load;
It makes me warm, instead of cold;
It makes me young, instead of old.
I remembered the day that I tried,
To make sense of the tears I cried;
I could understand it, when I was in love,
All of my emotions, I hid in my glove.
