Poetic license is the Poets Vehicle...

Poem Artwork

Personally I read exactly what is written,

I do not read into or out of what is on the page,

I only put into words my comments as my best can,

Sometimes I do not understand, so I try humor,

Or instead I write whatever I feel I am able to say…

 

If I do misinterpret,

My apologies I give,

I try to all the time be myself,

For is that not always the way we should live…

 

If I something up do screw,

I cannot change it without that which I knew,

So please bear with me, my mind is an empty flue,

With only but smoke and fog to daily work through…

Can you lose your license for writing under the influence? If so we're both in trouble.

Damn, I didn't get my license and now I'm really in trouble. Guess I'll have to start stealing. Do I need a license for that?

Ed, I don't mind your faults; it shows you are only human. I loves you just the way you are; don't ever change!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

With all that you've experienced in life, you NEED humor to keep you sane!!

Don't care what you say in the review. A little humor makes the day for me. You are polite to me always and I don't mind your character faults at all. Good friend and all.
