Super
Superpowers?Let’s make a list,Cause all ofthem, I think I missed,Like superstrength, for that I’d opt,When I thinkof the stack of plates I dropped!
And otherthings, like super speed?To do mychores, for that, I’d plead,And supersight? With super eyesI’d wear myspecs just for disguise!
Hmmm…supersmell? That may be mine,Cause stinkystuff I smell just fine.But what wouldgive life seasoning?Why, superthought and reasoning!
Command ofelements, that’d be neat,And flyingwould be oh, so sweet!And swimmingwithout needing breath,Yep. Nothingthat would cause my death!
If I couldlive a long, long time,With superlife, that would be fine,Just think ofall that I could do,The learningand the skills accrue...
But wait. If Iam still aroundWhen all Ilove are ‘in the ground’,Now how excitingwould that beIf I lostfriends and family?
You know, I’llstick with what I’ve got,My achingjoints and tangled thoughts,My power fits melike a glove,My super power,friends, is LOVE!
Karen asks, "Write for me, please?"We write because we like to please!And we love her, you know that’s true,So this is what we writers do . . .We craft a poem based on a theme,With pencils, sharp, and eyes agleam,Each month we write and have such funWe can't wait for another one,With 'Super Power!' how did I do?Now, go and see the others, too:
