![]() Oh Greta!A Poem by Michael Handel![]() I did this for the make-me-laugh contest....Whenever I type the word "great" I always always, without exception, type "greta" first and then have to change it. Always, in fact I did it twice while explaining this. Does anybody else d![]()
Oh Greta! I'll always type you first you need no correction no change you're bright as you are
From where do you come? ....Quasi-dyslexia that manifests only in your half-backward brilliance If only others understood you (sigh) you'd need no correction no change
If I were stranger, by a notch, I'd write you, backwards, above my brow and then above the vanity we'd stare, deeply, into each other
but no kiss for that is another notch, stranger, and I'm not that much not yet
I'd write you into the stars into eternity are you the whisper of an oracle too low to decipher, yet? Or the name of a future love that I've not met, yet? Or a former life in another world?
Oh Greta! surely you jest and when I give my next review and if it deserves you, oh you don't change don't change you're fine as you are
And Greta..... I'll always type you first always © 2008 Michael HandelAuthor's Note
