"Purple Passion Midnight Dream"


Purple Passion Midnight Dream,
A new delicious flavor of ice cream.  

A little more from life, I ate,
I’ve come to like it a lot, of late.

At midnight, craving in my sleep,
I dream of passion, colored purple deep,

And in the morning, its remnant taste, still alluring,
I awake, to make limericks gleam
Of my Purple Passion Midnight Dream.

____


Note:  Can you tell--this isn't about ice cream?

I want to thank everyone in the Passionate Forums.  I only started writing poetry five days ago, so I’m still a little apprehensive about creating new work.  I hope you find my poems worthy of these forums.  If you do, it’s because I have all of you to thank for being my source of inspiration.  I find the poetry here, absolutely amazing.  I’m glad I found this "…circle we all call our family of friends!"

I’ve been spending most of my time in The Corner Pub.  I hope you’ll drop by.  I’ll stop back here whenever I can.    

Again, thank you all so much,

Gene Margolis

 "It often comes to me at night
When lights are dim
And thoughts are bright.

As I ponder what to write,
Take pen in hand And with it make
My words appear as no mistake.

Guided by a force unknown,
I create a new And wondrous poem."   ~Gene~

You have to be careful though, Gene, this place is much more addicting than ice cream!
A lot less fattening, though! Lovely poem! Keep 'em coming!

But what this gentleman forgot to mention is that he's also good..can't believe it's only been 5 days that you've been writing poetry!

Stop by the Pub...watch out for our Dragon though..he's a sweetie..we just call him Sam....

Gene, This is more than a poetry forum, it is a forum of the heart, a commune of spirits, a family of friends. Welcome to the family.
Enjoyed your poem!
