A Warm Welcome For Another Poet Poem by Doris Cornago

A Warm Welcome For Another Poet

Rating: 5.0


I'm sitting near the windowsill,
Speaking with a friend who's ill
He wanted to know if I'm busy
His asking made me feel queasy

Should I say that I'm not in fact
Would he feel that there's a lack
Of his importance to that moment
There's actually no need to comment

Yet I wouldn't be somewhere else
Than here on the edge of an ellipse
We took long to consider what time
Than admit our loneliness, a crime

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Friends can be more than friends, but where is the borderline to cross over? One must choose words carefully so as not to lose the friendship if one misreads the closeness of the relationship. In the photo are two motorcycles to show friends hanging out together but should there be more, is that better? So, hanging out sometimes means just being together, nothing serious.

This poem is in couplet form to accommodate the request of KEY as he seems better able to flow with rhyme. But in equal accommodation of my poem style - a very sweet gesture - he writes in my own style as his maiden poem to poem hunter to join me. There is hope, after all, in Dragon Island. :)
