The Secretary

A ceramic frog,
painted green with yellow specks,
sits on my desk.
Once a vase, now a pen holder � sated,
while I hunger.

~ what a treat to read this one again, Mick...

and it reminds me of myself at certain times in my life, while I sat at my work desk, bored to tears, playing with my pens and paperclips, doodling on post-its and waiting for lunch time to come...lol

love this poem

*hugs*

Author: Max Hardy [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 00:34:56 01/14/08 Mon Hello Mick Stunning visuals captured here, with such pithy commentary too. Did also remind me of the peculiarities of the movie of the same name. Enjoyed immensely. Max [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
