A/N: I'm no poet, and I know it.
This is pure silliness that I'm almost reluctant to post, but it popped in my head when I should've been working and wouldn't leave me alone. I'm not aspiring to any great literary goals here, just hope you enjoy my little ditty.
Disclaimer: I own nothing Bones related except my imagination.
There once was a Special Agent named Seeley Booth,
The FBI considered him a top notch sleuth.
But when he encountered a case which he could not solve,
His friend, Camille, suggested another he involve.
She was a scientist that worked with the dead,
How could she help him he wondered in his head.
So he tracked her down, intending to meet,
With her first smile, he was knocked off his feet.
Because of her background, he called her Bones,
She amazed him with her ability to reveal the unknowns.
Together they worked to solve a cold case,
But when they were done, she slapped his face.
A year went by before they crossed paths once more,
And they finally established a working rapport.
Murderers, serial killers, and kidnappers could no longer hide,
From Booth and Bones who used science, instinct and justice as their guide.
As weeks became months and months became years,
The partners fell in love, but were hampered by fears.
He was the first to suggest they should date,
But when she said no, he said he wouldn't wait.
Hurt and confused, they fled to lands far away,
For seven months they didn't speak, not a word did they say.
When they finally came home, Booth had a new lover,
And Bones a broken heart from which she tried to recover.
His new love was false though, it came apart at the seams,
And one wintry night, they confessed their hopes and their dreams.
Not long thereafter, the death of a respected friend,
Made Bones turn for solace from the man on whom she could always depend.
And sometime in the dark night, before the dawn of the new day,
The partners and friends found a new role to play.
Sweetheart, lover, paramour . . . whichever name you select,
They came together, as one, and both found it perfect.
And not long thereafter, the two partners did learn
Their night of passion led to a new concern.
Ready or not, Bones would soon become a mother,
While Booth came to terms with being her significant other.
They had their struggles, their strifes, and challenges that did daunt,
Made even worse by the psycho named Pelant.
But Booth and Bones had true love, and faith they would prevail,
And no computer hacking genius would cause them to fail.
In an old abandoned power plant, Booth finally shot Pelant dead,
With one precise bullet and a puddle of red.
The best thing to come out of that scary night,
Was Bones agreeing to marry Booth, much to his delight.
The partners enjoyed a couple years of marital bliss,
Until Booth took a gamble, an act that was remiss.
Bones kicked him out of the home that together they made,
She knew he wouldn't recover if in their home he stayed.
Booth got some counseling, to meetings he went,
He worked hard to show Bones, to him everything she meant.
Bones loved him, and missed him, and told him of her conviction,
That together they could overcome anything, even his addiction.
So, after a year full of heartbreak and with a new baby on the way,
The partners, lovers, and parents decided it was time to get out of the fray.
They left the jobs that brought them together, that they held so long and so dear,
And now we wait for Season 11, to learn what happens next year!
