Bounds at last and freedom cut <br />with choices done and wishes made <br />as if a million up-aboves are looking on, <br />pushing me down, their fire saved, <br />giving me the subtlety of charm and bond - <br />not the time to cast away <br />a second, third, fourth, and fifth chance <br />at truly finding love at a second, third, <br />fourth, and fifth sight. <br />But whom? <br />The endless now are possibilities in scope; <br />so confused in my choice of words, <br />words of choice that could be worse - <br />strike out third and I'll rejoice!<br /><br />Kale Beaudry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-mishmash-not-too-different-from-potatoes/
