TAKE ME AWAY

A lighthearted look at the pressures of today.

TAKE ME AWAY

Take me on a picnic

Take me to the park

Take me for a moonlight drive

All cozy when its dark

Take me on vacation

Take me to a play

Take me out to the ballgame

Take my time if you can't stay

Take a leave of absence

Take me at my word

Take me at face value

Take everything you've heard

Take me into your confidence

Take me in your arms

Take my friendship proffer

Take me with my charms

Take me almost anywhere

Take all things not slanted

Take a break...now I must speak

DON'T take me for granted!

Such a clever use of a common phrase in so many different ways. Yes relationships are all about give and take and if we don't spend the time in the taking there is no relationship. I loved the last line:
"DON'T take me for granted!" another key element. So well said in a flowing meter and verse.

Life is too short, so please
tune back in....I'm counting
on you.

I like poetry that's personal.
Well done.

No one wants to be taken for granted...we all want to feel loved and attention paid to us, for real!
I'm sure many people feel unwanted, and if they do, then it's curtains for the relationship; human nature reacts to emotions, gestures and passion and that should be the guiding light....not being taken for granted... well written Sharon and interesting.
