Write Something! Please!

When the boyfriend asked his girlfriend To write something for him, She wondered, would it ever end And that made her feel grim... But she determined undeterred That she must take the time, To fashion something so each word Could truly sound sublime... She penned a load of thankful thoughts, For all the things he'd done, Though sometimes he was made on sports And then he wasn't fun... But, on the whole, he was quite good, Yet, then again, was she, Their partnership was understood, Just like it's meant to be... So she sat down, began to write, Then wrote till he came home, Presenting him that very night, A heartfelt little poem... And when he'd read it line by line, He reached the end and wept, Because to him, it was divine, No wonder it was kept... Then he, in turn, sat down and wrote, A poem in reply, Of her good points, he then took note And finished with a sigh... She read the poem once then twice And loved him all the more, Together, they'd found Paradise, The joy they'd both searched for... Denis Martindale,13 March 2016.
