Love Poem: The Plot

The Plot

Once upon a time a story was written.
Dancing letters glide across the pages.
Him and her together. Eyes met. Smitten.
Epic Journeys; wars the villain wages.
Twists and turns throughout this leave us guessing.
Does the hero save the girl, however?
Racing toward her; gripping and stressing.
Fighting dragons. He will fight forever.
Most heroic. Saves the girl. The day too.
Scared townsfolk afraid no longer. Cheerful.
Wedding. Princess. Prince to be.  This love true.
Holy union. Happy couple. Tearful.
Life is less a book, and scripts offhanded.
Plotless stories. Rules unwritten. Candid.
