Day #70 – Requiem for the blue one.

I’m sorry I killed

you, but you needed to die.

The end had

come, and we both knew why.

You could have

objected, but why even try?

You knew it was

over, so you had to comply.

Sure, we had some

good times, I won’t try to lie.

But memories

like those bring no tear to my eye.

Yes, I remember

that day, when I decided to buy.

And I got some

help from that towel store guy.

But you know

the facts, so you can’t deny,

That you could no

longer make anyone dry.

And no one

knows that, better than I.

You were no longer

soft, and you’d lost all your dye.

So I had to kill

you, but don’t let that imply,

That your quality

wasn’t once very high.

But those days are

over, so it’s time for goodbye.

A sign that you had a really slow day:

You write a poem about throwing away an old towel.

    Slow day? Try awesome one. Poems about late towels are all the rage.

    Whoa, Watch out TS…The Ghost Office Poetry Blog just got a little competition.

    That was really good…you should have it published as a picture book, you know, to help kids cope with loss…or fall asleep. Whichever.
