hey!
my friend
let me get
inside of your
head
it's
kinda lonely
out here
and talking to
myself
is a little weird
hey, hey!
my friend
yes
i do believe
we've met
and i know your
tickle spots
so really
please unlock
and let me in
hey, hey, hey!
my friend
i get the hint
i'll go away
but i really
don't want to
cuz it's my hobby
melting you
until you spill
i say...
hey, hey, hey, hey!
my friend
what's that
you're doing with
your face?
it's cracking up
all over the place
i think at last
i've gotten to you
now your mouth is
opening too
and it's so cool
for me...
to finally see
you
smile
again
my friend
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

What iceberg could ever resist being assaulted like that?
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your kind comments..Though I don't often get a chance to comment back, let me just say that I am honestly thrilled that you all take a bit of your time to read my stuff.
ReplyDeleteI really like when people read my stuff.
Peace ~ Rene
Rene you little ray of sunshine, you. You're the really good salt, the stuff you pay extra for, the kind you have to grind yourself.

Like the slow, gentle approach to breaking the ice, Renee! A good reminder that you don't always have to use a hard, sharp object to chip away at it. (Being that I've never lived where it snows, it's hard for me to actually name the tool!) But the salt just seems a bit gentler :) and maybe even more effective?
ReplyDeletesweet ode to friendship and persevering

you are always amazing with your choice of words. Love it as usual.
ReplyDeleteRene, btw, so excited to see you join Creative Tuesdays. No worries if you can't really draw as you've said before. everyone starts somewhere and the idea is to just be creative and give it a shot, have fun. We do this all together. It's not a competition but an opportunity to be expressive in ways other than writing and photography that many of us already do on our blogs. Remember, you can collage too, if preferred.
I absolutely loved the smile in the last stanza. It could have gone another way, but you dissolved the friend's barricade and touched their inner warmth. Nice.
ReplyDeleteyou're a trip!
ReplyDeletethe good kind.
without a map.
choosin' on-the-fly and rewarded with vistas.
good writing, Rene!

This would make a great song.

Salt is a patient friend
and it always wins..in the end
Peace ~ Rene
That is the cutest ever...I like the way you play and have fun with your words. The poem with a singing tune. It's nice and I think there's a deeper sense to it as well. I like it.

I can imagine these words to be lyrics for a song...
ReplyDeleteBTW: how can I follow your blog? I can't seem to find the "Follow" link. Do you have one?

Doris, scroll up to the navigation bar at the top of the page,
ReplyDeleteLook to the left, next to the white search box, there should be the word "FOLLOW"...click it and that should do the trick :)
