Poem Artwork


Not touchy not much he must just be sensitive
In the give and take he could take as well as give
But would give them hell as well and never forgive
For awhile anyway for a day or two say

Even though this Steven-ness could go to day three
When should you smile then he could not stay cross somehow
At a loss for words again but through poetry
Because it was his only way how then as now

However he had been whenever he would be
To be just how he must be now then to be who
For stubbornness in questing for the best I guess
Does what he does his way whatever he may do

Through life to everlasting possibility
Or pursuit of the impossible more or less
Never mind the rest should the best of him allow
Because the one and only could be lonely too

Not touchy not much he must just be as you see
An oyster who has made of all his pain a pearl
Of great price costing all of it all for a girl
Or in my case me as the Princess and the Pea
