ODE TO LAURA
I don’t know how to pronounce your name
Lara
Lauwra
Lora
I However you say it, it doesn’t matter
You’ll always be you, making a clatter
Lover of cat paraphernalia
Lover of bumble bees
Lover of water and camping…but not so much of peas
You have curly hair and blue eyes to die for
Your abbreviated name rhymes with whore
Lovely neck dimple
Lovely little toes
Lovely big nose
No matter what happens, in this life or the next
About one thing, you will never be perplexed
Latch on to the truth
Lay hold of your dreams
Love every minute on these, life’s streams
Uggh, I always feel so corny when I write poems! Haha, hope you liked it! Can I just emphasize that I actually like my neck dimple- I do. It’s only there when I flex my neck and it creeps Becky out, but I like it. And that my friends, is day one of loving myself. I HEART MY NECK DIMPLE. Haha!
That poem was beautiful, it really was. Happy February Laura!
