 CINQUAINS

 

oh my

they are nice specs

her dad use to wear those

she liked men who wore specs

she thought she could trust them - not true

at all


someone

dropped their glasses 

who put them on a branch?

must be a kind person out there 

somewhere

 

they say

love is so blind

without specs it would be 

a good reason for wearing them

methinks

 

to see

or not to see

that is the  big question

whether to observe warts n all

or not

  5. "to see or not to see, that is the big question" nice play on Hamlet, and is there any real difference between "seeing" and "being"?

  8. Ha, this made me smile.........I see life through blurry lenses these days. It helps. Even today, when we were under a tsunami advisory! It ended well, thankfully.
