Freckled Girl

Edthepoet

Well I'm not a builder of bridges

But i

Know how to get to you

I'm not a swimmer of oceans

But I'll 

dive to the deep with you

 

I'm not a keeper of knowledge

But i

Know what I need to

 

I know someday 

Freckled girl

We'll become what we always knew

The distance between us 

turned from light to dark

And our love shined on through. 

 

 

Well I'm not a singer of ballads

But i

Hold a steady tune

I'm not a reader of odysseys 

But i

Wondered away my youth

 

I've never reckoned with reason

But

I reckon we need to

 

You see someday

Freckled girl

We'll become what we always knew

The distance between us 

turned from light to dark

And our love shined on through

    Nice. Appreciate the flow.

  • Robert Southwick Richmond

    Love freckled girls! Particularly girls with freckles in their cleavage.

    The past tense of 'shine' is 'shone'.

    • Edthepoet

      Not in this poem it isn't 😂

      • Robert Southwick Richmond

        This is a really powerful poem you wrote, and the grammatical error weakens the poem.
