Isn't It Funny?
by Marilyn Mackenzie



Isn't It Funny?

As I sat in the airport terminal
Waiting for you to return
From your trip
I realized how different we are
You and I.

If we both reached into a magic hat
You would pull out a white rabbit
And I would pull out a black
I wondered what that says about us
You and I.

Isn't it funny that two persons
Who are so truly opposite
Can be in love?
Our definitions of love
Are probably conflicting
You and I.

Let's not discuss it,
Lest we become statistics
You and I
Of how opposites do attract
But do not last.



To all lost loves....
Opposites attract, but do they last?

Very nice piece! I like your topic, although I can hardly relate to it because when I realized I liked a guy for a whole year my first reaction was, "Holy crap! Is there an extra hole in my head? What am I thinking?" Mainly because he was far older than me! Anyway, I liked your choice of words in this piece and the bit with the magic hat and the black and white rabbits... They do say opposites match, so this poem rather matches the notion. I enjoyed this one, and how you introduced it as your thoughts at a certain place in time. :) I myself usually realize random things when I lay in my bed at night waiting to fall asleep, admiring the glow-in-the-dark start constellations on my ceiling. I'm most relaxed then, when the house is quiet and I'm alone with my thoughts. Great flow in this piece, and I'm glad you appreciate my comments! Oh, and I couldn't find one grammar or spelling error! Great work, keep it coming!

i gotta admit, ive never experienced true love, where the person i love loves me back lol, but this is a really good view ^-^

Really liked this bringing out that age old ? Well all I can say is we better hope a few of those last, because court rooms will be filled to the hilt if they don,t. It's the differences in someone else that brings you together its respecting that difference that keeps you together.

I love this poem. Opposites definitely attract and hold...when you are able to share one another's passions and respect other viewpoints. I've grown so much in my relationship, as had my boyfriend. In many ways we are very different, yet, in amongst it all we find common ground.

I guess the things that you see as 'sameness' in the beginning of a relationship are the ones that hold the relationship together. It's when the 'opposites' start taking over that you're in trouble. Good write, Marilyn. Jackie

Hello,
I say we need to have as much in common as we can take.) after all I get along best with myself.
