Alison's Addiction

Dreamy thoughts occupy my mind
Fuel desire to make my heart race
Kidnap me from a mundane grind
Nothing ever will take your place

All agree I was born to pine
Satisfaction, your kiss will grace
Dreamy thoughts occupy my mind
Fuel desire to make my heart race

Such addiction wraps like a bind
Oh! Hide my need and leave no trace
Ice cream bar crumbs cover my face
Many kinds remain to taste and find
Dreamy thoughts occupy my mind

Hi Alison, I love your addiction to poetry above all, the poem for me is kind of success, I feel that and I would like so much to free my thoughts, I wish My comment is not all confusing, I love your words, your excellent poem and dreamy thoughts (such a lovely expression).

Absolutely delightful, dear Alison!

We must thank also Balladeer who succeeds in always inspiring you to try new forms of poetry. In whatever style you write there is your creativity in the main role ...

So much enjoyed.

Love,
Margherita

Oh man, Balladeer, you kept me going when I thought I couldn't.  If it were not for you and your lessons, I would have just floated away.  Thank you for everything.

Love,
Alison

Margherita,

You are more right than you may know.  Thank you very much, my lovely friend.

Thank you.  This poem kind of spilled out as I typed ... and ate an ice cream bar.

Alison,
Nice fun write, maybe should be "addictions", lol, (poetry and Klondike bars). I kinda go for the "Bi-Polar" bars myself.

Now I want to know what a Klondike bar tastes like. Is that what they're really called?

Alison - a great write!  I am hopeless at form poetry so I applaud you!

Helen,

Thank you for reading.  I just like to write, but I do enjoy learning, and using, various forms of poetry.  I tip my hat to Balladeer for having the patience to teach me.

And yes - there are yummy Klondike bars.  Vanilla ice cream with chocolate covering an crispy things in the chocolate.  Yummm.  Love 'em.

Now those are the kind of dreamy thoughts that can make one's tummy smile! I love ice cream but I have to do with frozen yogurt on a stick ~ which ain't have bad either!
Enjoyed your cute poem, Cutie Pie!

Love you!
