The taming of the shrewd!

The taming of the shrewd!

A Poem by andrew mitchell

I paved the way
to your heart,
and yet the road
to your heart
was still rocky.

I even laid traps
to catch the animal inside,
but you being wild and clever,
as you are
watched my every moves.

nice play on shakespeare...the road is paved with good intentions...but sometimes the job on the road is shoddy...and we still wreck our "shocks"!

very shakespearean inspired but the challenge of taming someone with only a powerful tool called love can make the impossible thing happen. well written piece.
