She is Enough

Day 20, dear reader, brings us a prompt of 'better late than never'. Once again, I wrote 3 poems on this prompt. One of them is a light-hearted view of my day at work, the 2nd is one that needs a lot of work, and the 3rd is the one I am sharing with you. Although it may not fit the spirit of the prompt, it really is better late than never. Please enjoy.

In this world that is pressed

for deadlines,

I seem to march

at my very own pace.

Sit back in comfort

my favorite café

providing a perfect setting

for creating a world

out of random words.

softly

gently

murmured voices

speak in a way

only a poet

will understand.

I will write my muse,

sharing myself with those

who care to listen.

as my hot coffee

cools down,

my thoughts turn

to the one I love.

She has never known

how enough she is,

for proper words

have always failed me.

And so I write

my words for her.

For when my time has come,

let it be said

'he finally told her,

better late than never'
