Peter Pan
by Keith D Allison
Our flight
has lasted
almost
a lifetime
I would have never believed
that you would have turned on me
to lay me low
to bring the pain
Things now cannot be the same
you have taught me fear
so from now on
it's Jiff or Skippy
how I hope, they will not do the same 03/06/2007 Posted on 03/06/2007

| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 03/07/07 at 02:32 AM Ah, so a recall of Peter Pan!! I did not know. My sis-in-law calls Jiff - "Jiffy Lube," due to its hydrogenated oils, or somesuch. I got nothin' on Skippy - unless it left town. ;) I enjoyed your poem - first stanza is great. |
