Poem of The Day – My Miss Annie

MY MISS ANNIE

Oh my Miss Annie
She's my lady
She laughs
She cries
She lives
She dies
And doesn't want to know why
She loves me with a cup of coffee
Clean house and a neatly made bed
Someone to hold in my arms at night
My Miss Annie is not greedy
All she ever wanted
was to be wanted
All she ever needed
was to be needed
Why do we make her hurt
Why do we make her ashamed
She doesn't want to be anybody
She doesn't want to be somebody
She just wants to belong
to someone
who will hold her in the night

I wrote this about my ex while I was married to her. ?She was not a career woman. ?Did not have no wish to be such. ?A women who wishes to keep her family and home happy, nothing to wrong with that. ?But this was a time of women’s liberation which meant that a women could not depend upon a man for her?livelihood?and was expected to find her way and stand on her own two feet. ?For those women who did otherwise, like my ex, they were thought of as traitors.
