A Note Poem by Sheldon Allen Saluta

A Note

Rating: 3.2


One day, he asked me
“What perfect gift will be? ”
I am sure that was for me
I answered, “Love of purity”.

Again, he asked me
“What perfect time will be? ”
“Anytime will do” replied
Over joy blistered me to wild

Whole day I waited
Unwelcome facts nodded
He brought a girl next to me
“My consort”, he proudly told me

Fake smile registered
And my body shuttered
I just walk away outcast
And take a note, “This is for last”

What you expect and what you get tells you great expectations is not the golden rule for some your words cloud the meaning of simplicity...good effort regards
