Her Drummer Boy Poem by Heather Burns

Once upon a
time
a very young
girl
started
searching
for her
drummer-boy.

She came
in
contact
with one
thinking
this
is he
not so.

Time passed
quickly
other drum
beats
were heard
but they
were not
the right
beat.

Then one
day
in the far
distance
she heard
a foreign
drum
so very
different.

It was a
new love
song
one
she had
never
heard
before.

The drum
beat
grew
louder
louder
bidding her
come and
explore.

As she
stepped
near
there was
he
standing
in the
forrest
alone.
drumming
their
love song.

At last
she had
found her
drummer-boy
the one
she spent
years
searching
for.
