Simon Says

one line
rhymed

like
prime wine
held
in crystal
fine

dip of
fingertip
into the
wine
brought
to the lip
to
linger
long

then
sipped

strong

then
slipped

into oblivion
on an island

with one
heaven
sent
bent
to lift life

to a summit
now to
commit

gently

to be lowered
again
to earth?

never,
ever

The truly great rhyme never dies..neither word nor flesh..it lives in our posterity and so, we live with it.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

What an imagination you have!!!!!!

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.

Imagination, vocabulary, a poet's mind, a well phrased verse, originality, lessee ... should I go on?
Not if you don't want a swelled head.

WOW!

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.
