My sons are keeping me busy this morning, so let's get straight into the prompt. We're going to write an apology poem. You can apologize for ending a relationship, breaking a chair, or maybe you can even apologize for not being apologetic.
Here's my poem for the day:
". . . I'm sorry"
"Because the world is round, it turns me on."
-The Beatles, "Because"
Because the day was nice. . .
Because I opened the window. . .
Because I left for a run. . .
Because there was an unexpected shower. . .
Because the birds were driven inside. . .
Because the rain followed them in. . .
Because I decided to splash through puddles. . .
Because you beat me home. . .
