From My Other Page, That No One Reads :-)

Poem #49

My middle child

A middle of the day siesta
A middle of the day refreshment
A middle of the day amusement

A middle of the night surrender
A middle of the night reconnaissance
A middle of the night adventure

You are the center of the world
The solar system, the universe
The anything, the everything

Smack dab in the middle of my heart, Cory Levi

A very nicely-written poem, LB! I'm sorry I've been falling way behind on reading your poems.

I like that.

I have so many blogs to read I made the decision that I could only handle one per person!

Tara: Aw, it's okay. I put them on a separate page so people wouldn't have to slog through them each day. I just wanted to show off this one for Social Animal :-)

Secret: Thank you :-) And ditto what I said to Tara...no poetry reading required.

That was sooo sweet. Did he read it? I bet he loved it too.

Churlita: I wrote it in his card and he was very sweet about it, although I'm sure it was embarrassing.

I enjoy your poetry so much. I'm terrible at it. C4C is a wonderful poet though. I envy you two. Keep writing them.

Ananda: I don't know about my poetry skills, but I do enjoy it very much. Thank you.
