Renda Writer - A Bowl of Milk

User Rating:

-- /10
(0 votes)



  I'm putting a little bowl of milk
Out on the porch step
It's just a little bowl of milk
I put it down and left

Wishing on a star
Looking out the widow
From a far
Staring at the steps

It's just some milk
I know that you drink it
Maybe what I want to happen will happen
If I think it

Hard enough
But it's hard eough
To live with
The notion that the milk might sit still

But I'm still waiting
On the porch pacing

I know there's other porches out there
And other bowls of milk too

But this one's for you

Interesting write, but I don't like the idea of comparing somebody to a cat...
