emotional salad

edited June 2005 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
A carrot dangled in front of my heart
I remained as cool as a cucumber
her scent was as sweet as summer corn
her lips colored crimson red like the softest tomato
the greenest eyes hiding her peppery temper
and how quickly egg meets face
and my river of tears flowing from the onion
as my love is ripped apart like a lettuce
next time I will order the daily special
I remain,
anonymous

    What a creative poem. I love the title. Caught my eye
    It doesnt hurt.... when I bleed
    but memories...they eat me
    I've seen it all before,...
    bring it on cause I'm no victim.

    I agree. The title is very creative and peaks one's curiosity.

    The poem itself is just genius. I love the analogies.
