 Poets we have seen her write of up and up of elephants and deep desires we have seen her twirl and swirl and catch herself upon warm funeral pyres she takes a bit of twinkling line and twirls herself therein she does it with a certain dash ~ and takes it for a spin we’ve seen him, then, do the same in jest, then in chagrin he looses yet the in of him and we collectively catch our breath and wonder where he’s been he takes a bit of crinkling lines and curls around wherein he runs ahead, then makes a splash and takes us all with him the poets come to play and say and we read of right and wrong we catch our breath in butterflies and we cast our hopes in song we see a flag of red and blue it flies there, upon the wind we try to capture moments replete to share it all again but is the feel, the emote the one you feel which the poet cast in wrote does it catch the chest of you or is the read simply a glue that binds us all in this as one or merely stand as dandelions gold in sun something here for the day then in a puff, tomorrow’s play or were the words of him or her merely a thought cast down or did you read then read again and feel the lift of frown did you get one thing from them and in turn gift it back? did your pen take upon it verve and did you watch the sweep and curve of your own thoughts, perhaps, here, intertwined? did you then feel for a moment’s bless this poem, it could have been mine? Don't discuss yourself, for you are bound to lose; if you belittle yourself, you are believed; if you praise yourself, you are disbelieved. -Michel de Montaigne [This message has been edited by Decaflame (edited 06-07-2001).] |

There are so many good and even great writers here at Passions. I've learned a great deal in the time I've been here. I would love to be able to twirl a pen the way you do.  Michael Proust- |

but is the feel, the emote the one you feel which the poet cast in wrote does it catch the chest of you ================================== yes ... that is it ..exactly did your pen take upon it verve and did you watch the sweep and curve of your own thoughts, perhaps, here, intertwined? did you then feel for a moment’s bless this poem, it could have been mine? ============================= yes ... that is it ..exactly just like this one ...(OHIWIHWT)  she said I dont know why you ever would lie to me |

Ahh..I read your work all of the time, and never know what to say. I'm still short on words. I love this though, and wanted you to know I'm still reading. |
