She Don't Like Roses
She caught me with her sister and she ran back out the door;
I sent a dozen roses so she wouldn't be sore no more.
Then, I went back home to see her expecting an embrace.
Instead, she slapped me with those roses right across my face!
Now, how was I supposed to know red roses she didn't like?
For instead of an embrace--I was told to take a hike.

About The Author
My writing doesn't follow any set genre, it's interdependent of my mood and all that's taking place in life. I'm still finding myself, what I write constitutes the markers along the path of that journey. With time, many things will manifest in my work and perhaps I will pursue one or two genres. For now, it's not, "What type of writing is my passion?" "Writing is my passion."
