I traveled back inside myself
to find the wayward rhyme,
the chrysalis-paralysis:
twas such a simple time.

Gone timidly in imagery
from dreams I now debate
Was better not to venture out?
-to see what lies in wait?

I have a thousand books in me
Achieving? Grieving more!
This want to write a single song
of wish I had before.

And so it goes with ball and chain
of poem husbandry:
Swing the links and smooth the chinks
then smack with imagery.

(smiles) And it is funny how rhyme goes somewhere but it has no direction, it takes you all kinds of places with no clear destination yet it all sounds complete sense in the end! (big hugggsssssss) It's great to see you back, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Walter, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Walt~
How WONDERFUL seeing you making the time to make some rhyme~

I truly adore this piece~
A lovely cadence of imaged wording~

Hoping you'll find time to *gift* us with more and more and more~

the spirit rejoices over what it has left.
