Landlord, "I heard about People like You!"

Love of Home!

Landlord, "I heard about People like You!"

Love of water
The
Carolina beaches
calling me home!

Landlord from
The North Banks
Of the Carolinas said,

"I heard about people like you!
Always wanted
to meet one like you!"

"You kept your word
To keep this place clean!
You were here for a year
The carpet is spotless
Emaculate!
Oh Wow!
I won't have to replace it
This place is ready to go
To be rented right this second
For a new tenant
To view, lease & move in Today
God, you Are Good!
A little petite old Jewish
Woman shrewd and wise
Owner of Wise Potato chips
Ethical in business
When the house had a delay
She paid for another months rent at the beach!
The beach place was adorable quaint
Because I had already signed the lease
Paid the deposit and
First months rent
She was gracious
But a powerhouse
Not one to reckon with!

The appliances are clean
Not a scratch on the counter
How did u do that?"

I put table runners
Under the canisters
And appliances
I left it as I found it
Respecting
Her property
My Love nest
Not a house
But a home

We left the shoes at the door
To not tear up the floor
To come no more?

The sand was not invited in
So we patted our shoes together
To knock off the sand
So the wind can
Cooperate to return
To blow it back to the beach
To where it originated
Belongs
Once was a home
for ocean critters
a shell
No longer needed
but pulverized to dust sand
For the shells got crushed
to turn them into sand
That's how Mother Nature
Cleans up the beach
Like a tumbler
That the ocean waves and wind
Purified cleansed the beach

When we returned home
So we tapped our shoes
Outside
For the sand to not enter in
Too close to the Ocean

Tons of sand from beaches here
To not act like a diamond
With 8 cut edges to
Tear up the carpet
Sand is abrasive
It blows in the wind
Polishing everything it touches
Like mother natures
Sand blaster
To get rid of soil debris

Where
A Duet of Two love birds
Rested
Cuddled spooned
&
Called it home
While they
We're swinging on their swing
Perched on a branch
Founded a home
Made a life
She gave me the most
Beautiful
Written
Reference
I
Ever
Owned

&
My entire deposit returned
Immediately right there on the spot!

With Love

About this poem:
Emaculate house Deposit back
On the spot at inspection
Even the garage spotless!
Landlord ecstatic joyous happy!
I miss the ocean beach very much
Clean dry pavement
No snow
No black ice
Don't miss snakes or reptiles
You see them migrate during broad daylight to the run off ponds in residential areas or canal ditches
Mammoth Snakes cross roads to get to ponds
I miss deboned barbecued chicken on a stick with spinach & cheese
Chick filet sea shells summer clothes house dresses
A C is needed in the Southern states & Alaska drought fires
Last summer very hot drought fires

May I ask you a simple question without prejudice or a hidden agenda? A simple yes or no answer is all I inquire of.
candykid
It's quite simply really. My time is valuable, I am offering an oppurtunity that you have a choice to either accept or not. Make your decision and cast out any fears.
candykid
20 minutes has been granted for what should have been a simple one word answer, Incapability solidifies incapability. Research the definition of Poetry, and while you attempt to learn, apply those newly-learned elements if you happen to come to the realization of suggested true definition, in which many debate, yet far fewer do not.

You obviously have Amnesia
To the evil you dish out to people
Go away
candykid
Your words will stand as a testament.

Racheal forgive me for as i read your piece
I also have a similiar line of thought with Candykid
Maybe this is a rare kind of poetry
A bit confusing and narrative to the end

But honest as i shall be
As countless times with others ive been
Even I myself have written terrible poems
So as i said .. its not like a poem
SOG157
Greatly wrote .Love how you put it all toghter.
