You make me smile

Your output of rhyming rhyme, falls
My mind to a slaves enthrall.
Bowing to all the flow of words,
Like wings in flight of flying birds.

The rhythm is magnificent.
They fly and fly in awes invent.
I wonder how your mind in wend
Can flow so long without an end.

You are creating an Amazon
In truth to me a paragon.
I am in awe of your display,
In words and thought and repartee.

Prolific, that I would declare,
Terrific, that I know is there.
And specific is the marvels bed,
Glancing out the water shed.

I love your file I love your style.
You are to me the master wile.

Sy,
I was early to bed and early to rise
And late to get this nice surprise
And late to hear you eulogize
And fast to get a tear in eyes
And not agreeing with the wise
And I don't mean to criticize
My pen soars rapid through the skies
But my quipping may be my demise

Thank you for the lovely poem
It touched my heart
Elizabeth

If you are dreaming, keep it up. I soak up the poetry like a sponge.

Sy,
You should know that all the while
Your poetry brings on a smile
Not for the petals that you throw
But for the rose from which they grow
Not for the eulogies you send
But for the magic of the pen
Not for the waters sweet refrain
But for the font from which it came
No other poet can wield a word
And twist a phrase so sweetly heard
But all this magic has a source
And that is you, the poet of course
The man behind the poem's grace
Is the one who brings a smiling face

And I'm smiling

Elizabeth

ThUnDeRkYsS,
I think you read between the lines
And that to me is just fine. Thank you much.
Pff,
I think we touch not enough,
I really, really like your stuff. thanks *L*
Severn,
Beauty lies were beauty lies
These are only beauty sighs. *L*
Nan,
You are the best and the answer is yes. *L*
Ohme,
Drain the sponge there is more to come.
Thank you for the comment.
lostboy,
May your smiles out do your frowns, thank you.
Lizzy,
Your smile does wonders for my pen
And will make you smile again and again.
But the waters that run so swift for thee
Are much, much to swift for me.
An avalanche has cought me up
And I miss my walks among the buttercups.
Please don't reprimand this old man
My wings only fly for a very short span
So bless you my Eizabeth,
I will do the best that I can.
