a dr.seuss look at a mature and unique idea. |
It doesn’t make sense nor does it fit All it does is fall, still she loves it I can fall too ya’know Better even than what Zeus can throw Alas, my barefooted twirling beauty comes near Clouds like chess pieces move to the rear Rain drop troops secure the line To keep us together She and I She danced and played while I stayed Right next to her in our precipitous parade Falling down from far above Thousands of droplets, all making love Then along came fatigue and all of his grief She grew tired and became quite weak I was shocked, appalled and jealous to see That she even thought of going inside and leaving me How could this happen? I would not have this! I poured even harder to prevent such madness I kept her outside and safe with me All the while she stay there dwindling She knew my jealous anger was a product of love A love so deep and hard that it caused a flood It was no surprise When the water began to rise My dear sweet lovely My dear demise Weak and tired and almost dead She could not keep the water from below her head She could no longer flail nor could she kick So down down, down she went |
