Robin Would, Robin Could, Robin Should
[ Would
Robin[ could
[ should
HE would have lived his life in quiet peace
WOULD that life would grant such a simple wish
HAVE all his friend's and family's love increase
LIVED all this love to a happy finish
HE could have loved his lady, but for fate
COULD not have known the lonely life to come
HAVE time to find lost Hope before to late
LOVED all his friends and endured hate from some
HE should have known the tricks that life can play
SHOULD hope to find his answers from the past
HAVE a chance to begin a brand new day
KNOWN from the start just how to make it last
Robin Would live life to love those he could,
Should have Hoped for this to be understood
This is a Elephino poem, Maybe a sonnet? Maybe a BS Down-n-Over ; The first word of each line can be the first word to the next line. I know, it's crazy as hell, just having fun.

Thanks for taking the time to read and comment.
Yea, I had a good time playing around with this one. I may have even come close to a sonnet, but I really don't know.
If you are talking about exploring my mind, I must warn you, I cannot be responsible for injuries or lost persons. It's a hundred acre vacant lot filled with junk reflections, illogical reasoning, jagged misunderstandings, rusted out contemplations,rummaged ruminations, and all sorts of other dangers, not to mention the snakes.

Snakes in your mind.. that sounds intense.
I like this exploration of a well-known character. It makes him more relatable.

Thank You Jukebox! Yea, Snakes tend to live in junk yards, mine is no exception.
This started with a DU forum contest, I didn't have a clue, it's just a puzzle I was fiddling with.
