ooo look!
a lovers tiff!


Bronze Penny

And whilst you are off in
Your sultry cave
Sulking
Consider this...

This woman is certain of
Who she is.
She is direct and uncomplicated...
Calling in her spades.
There is no need of gold or silver because
She holds her own jewels that glisten
Her everyday happiness to herself.
She smiles easily and wantonly with
Her inner reasons...
And knows what is acceptable to her dreaminess.

She is not playing- she is waiting
For a small bronze penny to drop...
Keep her waiting if you feel you must but
Be aware your ticket could expire.
This woman knows not how to waste her time...
And yet
And yet...

Despite the seriousness of the subject, I had to smile. I agree that maybe a brick and not a penny should drop...maybe on someone's head? lol.

Sometimes one needs to drop a brick not a penny, but in general patience conquers all tiffs... let's face it, men and women sometimes seem like they are from different planets! Enjoyed this write. :-)

Ah, well, who has not had a lovers tiff, I suppose it depends on how far into the relationship you are - and how stubborn you are - I know I'm very stubborn but then again I'm not lol - I hope it resolves with both parties smiling :-)
