EdenA Poem by Cole HayleyOne of my favorites. (Everything is always picture perfect...)Eden You made me into this clay man Stiff and lifeless, cheap and priceless And you gave me a leash Attached to a clay dog. So you made me this little house Roads of cobblestone and beds of foam And you gave me a telephone Attached to nothing Modelling on airplane wings… You made me this little clay girl Pretty brown eyes as blue as the sky With her little pony tail Made of string You made us a little neighbour Ugly and tense, so you made us a clay fence He has his little Rottweiler And his midnight tendencies Modelling on airplane wings... You made us a clay city With a clay sun, and clay guns People jogging down the street Dodging cars You made us a hospital Telemarketer calls, and clay malls A veterinarian too And wooden beds… © 2012 Cole HayleyAuthor's NoteFeatured Review
