Encumbrance

by Paganini Jones

That waspish one, Encumbrance,
I dislike her way!
She took my loved one's heart,
And kneaded it as clay,
She would have baked it in her oven -
I prevented her.
And though his heart still holds her print,
So he rejected her.
And though her words may echo still,
She holds no sway.
That waspish one, Encumbrance,
No! I like her not!

Paganini!!! I LOVE IT!!! *laughing* You captured Encumbrance's spirit and brought her to life, made her more touchable. *bowing in humble deference* A fitting compliment to your assistance!!!

She sure sounds like a witch. I like her not as well. Lol. But I lub the poem.
