Hey duke-
Some edits/comments on Love Friday:
Love Friday
It’s a perfect Friday
a perfectly ordinary Friday
as if any Friday could be moved "be" up to break the line on it
ordinary that leaves "ordinary" on its own line for emphasis
there is time for everything
but no time to finish
anything "anything" echoes back to "ordinary" with its own line
work is easy
to put on the stack
for Monday
it's so hard to start (suggested re-working for this stanza)
any job at all-
oh, Friday
if there were a day to love
it would be you
and it's almost quittin time -
to start romance anew
I thought the poem oughta end on an upbeat note, just to show why you love Friday.
