so seen by those who saw
in which the ignorant capitulate
but I wouldn't suggest dismissing
time what life intends for reaching
though there wasn't much to find
a lot of words stripped of their
very meaning I was ready
to dismiss them the
moment they
fell

sadly though

I never got an opportunity
the most that I was seriously
able to ascertain was but a
momentary passing on
the limerick

Hi Dale....Words are so tricky...they play among the patterns of the mind and pinch the heart; then by the time the pen is ready, sometimes depart.

This is the very place I've been for a year and a half now, and both the main reason I've been gone from here and, now that it's fading, the reason I'm back (other than the fact that I've missed my friends here). Gosh, you say it well!

Martie took the words right out of my keyboard! lol
Dale, your poems are works of art ~ literally.
After enjoying the artistic presentations, I then get into the meat and potatoes of the write!

Mysteriously beautiful ... elegant in presentation no doubt ... I guess that a momentary passing can originate a really good limerick!

Don't freeze up there!

Love,
Margherita
