‘My life has been one long… <br />cliché! …’ she sobbed. <br /> <br />He put his sunburned <br />muscular forearm flecked <br />with golden hairs <br />around her shaking shoulders. <br /> <br />She lifted her tear-brimmed, <br />reddening eyes to meet <br />his steady gaze. <br /> <br />‘Oh my darling..’ <br />she breathed. <br /> <br />And they fell into <br />a passionate <br />cliché.. <br /> <br />I’ve said it before and <br />I’ll say it again. <br />One man’s cliché is <br />another woman’s love-byte. <br /> <br />John Ciardi said, <br />The craft of poetry <br />is not easy. <br />It is better than easy. <br />It is joyously difficult.<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/clich-s-i-have-loved/
