Beautiful Disaster

My Favorite Mistakes

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

A Beautiful disaster

one of my favorite mistakes

Occur when happily ever after

comes in unexpected wakes

Flooding doubt and reassurance

Filling my head, stealing my heart

When love makes her appearance

chaotic peacefulness will start

Delicate determination

fragile fractured frills and lace

Spontaneous hesitations

lead to glorious mistakes

The flow and flux of heartbeats

stirring a never ending high

Heated passion stirs soft sheets

before it all ends with goodbye

Experience begs repeating

though it always ends the same

For although love can be elusive

I'm first in line to play the game

    We all learn something from the mistakes we make as we go along each day, but it how things end that really counts. Good job.

  • First in line, rarely picked, the fate of most, smitten, lovesick. Yet it only takes one, should it prove true, that's what I think when I think of you. Okay, that's probably not even worth a children's Valentine's Day card, much less Carlton or Hallmark, lol. I guess I have a ways to go in honing my craft. But your offering is charming, wistful & hopeful. I love it.
