I Hope You Like Them, Too

By birksy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

In truth these simple syllables, (the most have four per word) are for no-one but myself, but if others feel a need, they comment, at times inanely, and at others with a genuine insight, far more than what I’d hoped. But in the end, when electronic ink is dry, and all the thoughts have been sourly distilled, these simple lines, exist for no-one but myself, although, I have to say, (in hushed tones) I hope you like them, too.
