The Pradita Chronicles is hosting a Romance fortnight and issued a challenge to writers to contribute. Hence the following. Don’t forget to hop over to Pradita’s page.
Wait For Me – A Response to a Romance Challenge
Wait for me
Said the smiling be-freckled face.
Wait for me after
They were handed testamurs
Smiling for the photographer and
For the sheer delight
A degree of success
From the lectures and tuts and
Now
Bachelors all!
Wait for me after
Crowds came
Faces, hands, and places on the lawn
But he and
Her
Were
gone.
Wait for me after
He didn’t.
Not then.
But after, yes!
Many times
After
And after that.
After
She was gone.

Simon's still stanza 
Oh the loss in this one… It’s sad how sometimes life doesn’t give us second chances. I’d love to reblog this on my blog as part of the Romance Fortnight. I’ll be reblogging this next Saturday, 24th February. I hope that is alright. Thanks again 🙂
You know, I thought I could not come up with a poem in the time-frame. But, as I recalled stories that I knew, this one resurfaced. Yes, you can reblog. I’d be honoured.
So this is your own story? Hmmm… Hope that unlucky girl knows what she lost. I’ll reblog this on Saturday then 😊
