Ode To A Rose
Distance
Is the thorn in our relationship.
But hope is the droplets of pure rain on thirsty rose petals
That smells so sweet
And offers so much
To come.

About Me
About me
I am a 65 year old male from Grand Rapids, MI. I have been writing poetry for years and I tend to enjoy humor in poetry. I utilize puns, non- sense verse, irony, parody, and satire. Yes, I have written serious poetry but I find the humor flows easily.
I am married (second time and wonderful), have 2 children and 5 grand children.
Location: Grand Rapids, Michigan USA
