The Lover Overhears Things
Three Word Wednesday
Words this week: Absurd; Groan; Weak
The Lover Overhears Things
You like the flowers
more than you like me. I heard
you say so to him
while I eased my way
out of the green density
of his successful
half acre garden.
I never heard him deny
you the whole way out.
It's absurd. It's worth
a groan or more but I guess
his garden will win
every time, dear.
You are both too weak to find
any effective change.

that's kind of sad, hobbies are hobbies and should not be put in front of people.
ReplyDeleteGood poem my friend
ReplyDeleteTime to move on, I think, when a woman loves her flowers more than you.
