randomized flirtations buzzed
and bounced around your brain
the honeypot and the bees
of course you had magpie eyes
& cocksure wings of a cuckoo
you stole many things from me
including my heart
there is a word for people like you

And I have a feeling on what that word is! This was emotional to read and even sad. Thanks for writing this work...enjoyed it Gillian!

a good poem penned, ah if someone's heart is stolen from them, then it was always open and ready to be taken i reckon, and the beat of it sighs in love's open hand.

You made my Tuesday even better than it was. I thought it couldn't possibly improve after I got my salad at Subway FOR FREE; apparently I am mistaken. There is such...glee in this poem, for lack of a better word. I'm loving the honey and bees and the magpie and cuckoo

Cracking stuff

makes me think of the old Spanish saying "if love isn't madness, it isn't love"
. This one is a mouthful, gilly - no pun intended
. Lol, can't say where some of these words took my mind - hehehehe....!
power-packed poem, my friend...love the last line and the many words that i'm seeing and hearing in my mind now!
