The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

One too many

So many things I did not do with you.

What are the questions should I ask?

Was there anything I could do?

 

Now all is hidden in a flask

Every thing you told is untrue.

You show the world only a mask

 

The happy clown dressed all in blue

Take your time review your cast

Was every thing so bad where you grew?

 

Too little ,too late it could not last

Now the flowers will grow anew

On a well kept grave that marks you've past

I love three liners, I remember in junior school (elementary in the US I think) our teacher trying to explain to us how to write a three liner adn us looking at him as if he was weird. We were all brought up to think poems had 4 lines per verse and every other line had to rhyme. He changed my view on a lot of things, but poetry was the main thing, he opened my eyes.

 

I really liked this wren, it's structure lends itself to the subject matter, I don't think the feeling would be as full if it was written in another form.
