Set to be settled not in a meek way undeterredIt was enduring with many happenings in between
When these occurred parts on love as expected
Were all the while there in the background
Young hearts in a groove of good assertions
Enjoying nights extending with wonderful skills
Young hearts in a groove of good assertions
Enjoying nights extending with wonderful skills
Lots of reasons to end up with stable outcomes
Determined to clamber back onto an even keel
Determined to clamber back onto an even keel
To extend support aligned to their feelings
Friends were expected to lend a helping hand
Best to go along in parts ending in happiness
Success in wanting to stay in togetherness

Hank, I appreciate your way of looking at the painting. I will have to read it a few more times to fully grok what you are getting at with your poem.
ReplyDeleteIn the in between of your poem the reader gets the sense of expectations. Can they be realized is the question?
ReplyDeleteLove in community and in undeterred commitment is so underrated when it comes to successful marriages. The first two lines set the pace,theme, and tone in a remarkably understated way, Hank.
ReplyDeleteYour closing says it all! Well done, Ken.
ReplyDeleteI like the way you have used the painting... The prompts are kinda cool because I have already seen a few from this painting and everyone has a different interpretation.
