I’m sure I’m not a singerA Poem by Mark Heathcote
I’m a carpenter in my mind I’m a poet and a painter But I’m sure I’m not a singer Like you! I’m sure I’m a builder living in a shoe And I’m sure I believe I’m in love with you We’ll have 2.3 children Or as many as we can fit in a shoe Cause I’m carpenter I can mend and make do I’m a poet and a painter So I can paint a happy scene And romance the heart of a stone Until it’s plunged into the sea But I’m sure I’m not a singer Like you! I’m sure I’m a force of nature And you’re a flower Like a lion at rest With a roar to open my breast Oh I’m a carpenter in my mind And I want to build you a home We’ll have our penthouse on the moon When we’re older because I’m dreamer And I can see in the dark As long as I hold you close to my heart But I’m sure I’m not a singer Like you! So although I’m a poet I depend On you: for my song Cause I’m carpenter Ill depend on you to pull my splinters And heal my redwood heart. © 2013 Mark Heathcote |

My muse almost demands it of me. So you may find quite a few being poured out from time to time. I all so write man.. more..Writing
