Aye, it was the I I bit into an apple core That stayed as chyme forever more. It filled my belly, filled my brain Made me conscious of the reign. Now I be a kingdoms heir With all the problems and the care. The realm is small, there is but one And it is I, till I am done. It came to me as mystery From mystery to history. For all escaped Pandora's box Was to me a paradox. Yet I am full of apples chyme And there is nought but spend the time. I never knew an apple core. Could open up forever more. Aye, it is the I and awe, Sends me through whatevers door. |

I like this line... "From mystery to history." but even better is... "Aye, it is the I and awe, Sends me through whatevers door.". Wonderful air of mystery here. -jaimie www.ladysixstring.com |

Seymour~ 'The realm is small, there is but one And it is I, till I am done.' A bit of intriguing thought here, my friend. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

"Aye, It was the I" - I always knew you be a worthy shipmate, me laddie. This poem is very intriguing - I had to read it a couple times to get the theme. You are definitely not a Hallmark Cards writer - lol. Your works always come in from an angle. I like that. |

Seymour this is great! Is it true an apple poem a day will keep the poet doctor away or is that just another cliche? I enjoyed the read thoroughly!! |
