Love Story : Now and Then

Spiky-haired Romeo

Juliet in jeans

Gone are the days

Of kings and queens

No family problems

All that is just lame

Through the passage of time

The love remains the same

They now have e-mails

Instead of letters

They type from the keyboards

Instead of birds' feathers

Instead of in parties

Or walks in the town

A head banging rock concert

Is where their love is found

Spiky-haired Romeo

Juliet in jeans

Gone are the days

Of kings and queens

Author's Note

Something I've wanted to write in a long time. Dying to see reviews on this one!!!

Reviews

[Celestial Witch Child]

Very cute. It makes me wonder if a tragic ending lurks somewhere in their near future.

[eglantine]

Great first and last stanza--the rythm and meter is spetacular--def got a beat going there. Watch your stepping in the other stanzas, they don't match up as well. Thanks for sharing!

[Daenerys]

This is really good. I love it how you set it in modern times.

[Coyote Poetry]

Your words are correct. Roses and long walk with good talks are gone. I like your description of today love affairs. Thank you for the excellent poetry.
