My husband stopped to ask me <br />''What do you do for fun? '' <br />I answered very simply... <br />''I love poems...here, read one.'' <br /> <br />He looked at me as if I said <br />''I like to chew on glass! '' <br />And when I passed my book to him <br />he said ''I think I'll pass.'' <br /> <br />He said ''You must be crazy! '' <br />''Please say I just mis-heard.'' <br />He just can't see the beauty <br />within the written word. <br /> <br />I begged him ''Please, just read one.'' <br />''Just give the poem a try.'' <br />He said ''I'd rather use a fork <br />to poke out both my eyes! '' <br /> <br />How can we be so different <br />and yet still get along? <br />Although we're polar opposites, <br />he's the music to my song.<br /><br />Mary Nagy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/polar-opposites-2/
