Like a river pt 1

Hi after my last slip-up I guess this is the best I can do....


The day was young and so were we,
Eating by the water.
She loved me and I loved her back.
We planned to have a daughter.
But one day she told me,
My love, my fairest true.
I look upon this river,
And it dose remind me of you.
Because our love is like a river,
Flowing very fast.
But that won't be a problem you see,
For our love is built to last.
And I look upon this river,
It's an omen,
Can't you see?
For I love you fairest.
Won't you please marry me?

GREAT POEM! I liked that whole analogy of our love is like a river. Short and sweet to the point nicely done. Could use some editing but what poem couldnt? keep it up I'd like to read more :)



We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.
