Peanut butter is the preferred food of saints;
Devils are keen on cranberries.
Fives and sevens denote disaster;
The ace of spades, mystery.
If I could organize each beat of my heart
Like spools in a drawer,
Then I could mend love
Then I could darn devotion.
Red is always passion;
Keep yellow close for hope.
But remember, rain starts on the rooftop,
And two strands twined make rope.

ReplyDeleteI like the play on words with "darn devotion." This is very cool, Shay!
ReplyDeleteTo me this is all about choices and making decisions; I've been on that rooftop.
ReplyDeleteLOL Jannie, It may well be "nibmle" too. I wouldn't be a bit surprised. *rolleyes*
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked that, Mama Zen. Hehe.
I'll see what the Magic 8 Ball says about that, Pouty. ;-)
Very cool. Plus I feel better, because I love peanut butter ;)

ReplyDeleteAh well, back to reality...bye and you're welcome to visit anytime of course (like the background music too, which is a first, I usually find it annoying)
I love this, Shay, always a delightful surprise to be found in your word garden. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteLOL, but I still don 't think you are quite saintly, RK! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHello, Carolina, and welcome! That's a lovely place to sit and relax, I can attest. And you know, you're the third person to say the exact same thing about the music, which really pleases me. I hope you will visit again!
