Carbon Moments Revisited

what! what for me to write
and what should I explore
if you give me but a word
then I will give you more

carbon carbon and some carbon
it all simply comes to mind
when I wrote once of carbon
I did it to unwind

couldn’t rid me of the thought
so took one note, then took a lot!
as I looked it up to find
what some papered copy might bind

so very many carbo'd words
some thirty-six variations
how to make something of
all these wordly machinations

not that I am a lump of coal
but perhaps a carbonation?
although I do not carbonate
without some imagination

perhaps I could add on some dioxide
but certainly not a mix of snow
nor am I a bit disulfide
for I have some ways to go

nor am I just any process
or some chemistry of CO2
perhaps a diamond in the rough
if I’m good enough for you

perhaps in some electricity
I may have a brief spark
perhaps a bit of carboyloy
surely not a bit of coal, dark!

don’t know why this word would linger
underneath my busy fingers
unless by copy of this carbon
I’d be a double for you to lean on.

There could never be a carbon copy of you, Karilea, 'cause you're so special! It would be nice though! The more Sunshine the better!

===================

I liked the way you played with Carbon around......
I didn't get it all too clear in the beginning but you have done such a lovly thought provoking work....

Thank you

Karilea--leave it to you to make one word into poetry that smiles.
