Nonsense & Nonsensiblities

A Poem by John

Ode to Mother

Disney princess,

fair hair shining brightly,

Golden blonde or ruby red

scrubbed and shined and

indubitably well-fed,

Let fall, thine locks of

lust and temptation that

the likes of mortal men such as I

Can replace instead the missing prince.

Know thee this now and know it well,

I promise naught but a roof and warmth,

no gold or jewels to dance upon

your porcelain chest and stride,

No throne to sit upon,

nor feather bed for you to rest,

only a glowing hearth, children

running to and fro, at best

only love alone, and bid thee well,

for I will give you a home.

beautiful. Simply magnificent, and probably the best thing I've read on the site so far.

On another note, I'd like to lend some uninvited advice. The only man you should be looking for opinions about your writing, is closer than you think. He served in the marine corps or something like that and failed the day before graduation. He's right under your nose, infact. Guess who? that's right, its you.
No, by the way, this is not some cheesy pick up line, or rather paragraph, that I got off instagram. The only reason I'm even writing this is because I thought I'd straighten out a little known fact. The only who has any say about how good you are is you. You see, that is the magnificent thing about writing. You have the power and if you think your writing is bad, well then it is. My words wont matter until you tell yourself that you are a wonderfully skilled writing. I mean I think you are but that don't matter until you realize it yourself... take this into careful consideration and, btw your life has only just begun.
