Render You Some Rhyme

a sonnet to a familiar ghost

I'd have thought

That after

All this time

I could render

You some rhyme

Just as fast

As can be

But this year

The words aren't

Here for me

I'm missing you

Too much you see

To give my all

To poetry

I almost missed this little gem. Thanks for it.

Thanks. I am not enjoying the Holiday season like I should, but want to write anyhow. ~Jim

The distraction of love is a powerful one and all the more so when missed. A lovely piece and nicely done
