Sad Day

Paul Bell

It was a sad day in May

When you went away

Sadder in June

When you came home too soon

To find April

In the shower

    I connected on so many levels to your words, dear Poet
    and they made me recall a song
    by Wyclef, titled 'Gone till November'
    and the lyrics, begin:
    'I dedicate this record the carnival to all you brothers takin' long trips
    Down south, Virginia, Baltimore all round the world

    And your girl gets this message that you ain't comin' back
    She sittin' back in her room, da lights is off
    She's cryin', and then my voice comes in pow
    And in the middle of the night and this is what I tell her for you

    Every time I make a run, girl you turn around and cry
    I ask myself why, oh why?
    See you must understand I can't work a nine to five
    So I'll be gone till November

    Said I'll be gone till November, I'll be gone till November'..
    (I'm sorry if I've completely
    missed your intensions or meaning
    for Your, poem
    with my self-indulgent, interpretation..)

      That's actually better than the poem. I need to be plagiarizing these works of art.

          It's cool that you made the poem rhyme in the beginning. Good job with this poem!

            She deserved a good send off.

            Very well constructed. Humorous, and a cool play on words. I laughed. What more can I say. - Phil A.

                Who's April?! And how did the poetic persona get out of this bind? May must've been pretty miffed.
