If I did have an honest — or dishonest — desire to kiss just one or two people, I might — but I couldn’t want to — my mouth is yours.
~Zelda Fitzgerald (in a love letter to F. Scott Fitzgerald)
Using the quotation above as your inspiration, write a poem (any form is fine) about honest or dishonest desires.
MY LIFE-SAVER
Silky golden-red hair
Sparkling sky-blue eyes
Luscious cherry-red lips
Supple flesh-tone neck
You are my one and only
I wish I knew it when
My eyes were turned to someone else
And you were only memory
I wasted over ten years
On the one I thought was it
But when he damaged my self-esteem
You carefully scooped up the pieces
We are now one and I've never been happier
Sharing our ups, sharing our downs
Our support is unsurpassed
My desire it's running over
So as we plan for our golden years
I'm glad that we're a pair
We brought each other through thick and thin
Living on happiness, respect and love
(I wrote this for my wonderful hubby)
