3WW - Him, A Partial Reveal

May 14, 2008 | Filed Under 3WW, Family, Photo, Poetry | 1 Comment 

Average - Neck - Scratch. Three simple words tossed at us by Bone for Three Word Wednesday. Though I have no time to read much this week, I could not resist writing, for as soon as I saw the word “neck” - the first line of the poem formed.

Him, A Partial Reveal

16.5 neck
above average height
(in the day)
large hands
big feet
inseam 30

actor, always on
(except when not)

dry witted
quick witted

moods worn for most to see
though some know not the signs

heart HUGE
hidden at times

while male bravado states its case

and loses.

Giver of self and heart.

I must only scratch the surface
for privacy means more to him than me….

Did I tell you I’m spoiled rotten?
(Not materially — for anyone could do that.)

Comments unopened - just because. Have a joy filled day y’all. I’ll try to catch up on reading this weekend.
