Fair to middlin' of nowhere

Maybe I'm just
making up for
that long dry spell

Maybe it's a watershed
of the too many things
I've been awash
and taken a spill

Feels more like
I've tapped into
my own sweet
spring fed well

Got a thirst to quench
from my fountain pen
filled with moonshine
ink from my still

Besotted I'll be
drunken for the life of me
on the sparkling waters
of poetry's thrill

THIS is fabulous, Lori.
Your pen flows with golden drops,
Of special words only you can bring.
Take the high road when you can,
With an occasional foray into the low.

High road? No wonder that one made me feel lightheaded! (HA!) You humble me, my friend.
Bless your heart.

Sweet poetry, sweet spring fed well,

Enjoyed the refreshing.
