Forget me not

Three short poems.

                        

              Forget me not


----

She told me, flattery will get you everything.
Please make me feel loved and wonderful.
I need someone, to be their, everything.
Even if just sweet lies dear Poet.

----

I remember the long Summer days and us stealing kisses and dancing near the lake.
You were my elixir of the sweet new Germany September wine.
Your kind words of love torn away years of misery and regret.
You told me often. Lover's love and they demand more in the midnight hour.

----
  Forget me not my love , she whispered.
The canvas of life is for us to create.
We can paint with a gentle touch or conspire to leave broken pieces of art,
where love can be dead and bury.
Blood art leave final resting place or love descended to glorious places.
Leave memories of sweet kisses and many dances for the moon and the sun.
Never to be forgotten.

"The canvas of life is for us to create." How true this is...we hold the paintbrush and wield the words. Beautifully romantic poetry, John....just in time for Valentine's day. Lydi**

Nothing wrong with sweet flattery if it gets you there.
Like the middle one. Love came at the right time.
I suppose at the end, love leaves us all. But the memories still paint the picture.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree Paul. Nothing wrong with flattery and thank you Paul for reading and the comment.

Ah, all of these are so lovely. What caught my eye with the first one is that the speaker desires to be loved, even if the love isn't true. That desperate feeling to be important to someone is a feeling many people experience and you conveyed it so beautifully. With the third one, I think the message is that love is something you create and each of us can choose how the end product will come out. Thank you for sharing these poems!

Thank you my friend for reading and I agree. We need to feel special and needed.

I loved the opening line. Soft, soothing and romantic. "The canvas of life is for us to create." If I am not wrong you used this line in one of your writings too...correct? Hope you don't mind me asking that. A beautiful poem.

Maybe. I wrote many poems into my journal today. I was in a writing mode. I have 8 more ready to be posted. Sometime we just write because we need to. Thank you Queen for reading and the comment.
