Hiya, Ashley! Hmmmm. I'm not much good with poetry, though I keep on trying. I generally love  love poems or poetry filled with comedy. One of my favorites growing up was one written by "anonymous", called If You're Ever Going to Love MeIf you're ever going to love me love me now, while I can know All the sweet and tender feelings which from real affection flow. Love me now, while I am living; do not wait till I am gone And then chisel it in marble — warm love words on ice-cold stone. If you've dear, sweet thoughts about me, why not whisper them to me? Don't you know 'twould make me happy and as glad as glad could be? If you wait till I am sleeping, ne'er to waken here again, There'll be walls of earth between us and I couldn't hear you then. If you knew someone was thirsting for a drop of water sweet Would you be so slow to bring it? Would you step with laggard feet? There are tender hearts all round us who are thirsting for our love; Why withhold from them what nature makes them crave all else above? I won't need your kind caresses when the grass grows o'er my face; I won't crave your love or kisses in my last low resting place. So, then, if you love me any, if it's but a little bit, Let me know it now while living; I can own and treasure it |
