Birds and Bees <br />both fly with ease <br />buzzing, flapping <br />in the breeze <br /> <br />Never meet <br />to copulate – <br />with budding seed <br />repopulate. <br /> <br />Adam, Eve? <br />They took their leave, <br />crying, sighing <br />as they grieve. <br /> <br />Graceless fall, <br />heaven? hell? <br />Grinning? Sinning? <br />Who can tell? <br /> <br />You and I? <br />A perfect pair? <br />An ideal Knight, <br />A Lady fair. <br />. <br /> <br />Faithful love <br />a perfect hue <br />one red, one white: roses, two. <br /> <br />Thorn and Rose <br />match perfectly <br />you are the Rose <br />The thorn? Ah, me.<br /><br />Lorenzo Costigliolo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-perfect-pair-2/
