Philippe’s Poetry - Words of Rhythm and Rhymes Summary Poem - 3. I Hate this Town - Chapter 18, Comment Poem

Like a moth to flame, Alec to Finn,

Why is he here, he doesn’t want this again.

Must tell this to Finn, but Milo has phone,

All his courage, and will, not to run home.

A quaint warm home, why here for Finn’s phone?

Knock on the door, brings little blond stare,

Surprise alights, You have blue hair!

Invited to witness, warmth of a home,

Milo, Nina, Gracie too, where has time gone.

Gracie Blood of Finn, Nina shames Milo for tease,

Your welcome to dinner, homemade pizza please.

Thoughts of Finn’s blood and a family brings pride,

They were just kids, but why did he hide.

Finds Finn drooling, relaxed and so young,

Defaults to stroke hair, awakens Finn before done.

Relives the past, jumps to have Fin,

Moans and groans, they’re at it again.

These feelings and emotions, deny the years,

They are as they were, this moment without fears.

Gracie has ears, so Milo cries fowl,

Reality sets in, Alec runs with his scowl.

River brings counsel, tells Alec to try it,

Alec the adult, can’t argue, just buy it.

Will his courage still hold, facing the old,

Dad wants mom visit, Alec seems sold.
