Rewrite:

  A blade of Bone.

Love garners new.
Like morning gathers dew.

A sentient dawn
Buds fragile passions
Searching for mystiques
Fashioned fantasies.

Stretched hands grasp
At nothings total.
Lucid placebos.
With thorns of rue.

Tic-toc swings the pendulum
Riotously the night tarries
The sun spills red
The guillotine drops.

A basket catches
Sliced nape.
And the head empties
Rivers.

Life is a mystery and a key.
Drawn from the oceans and the sea.

Ahhh my POEt of wisdom....
how clever of you...
I dont think I recall this one..so rare you dabble in free verse...
but you wrapped it in prologes & epilogs of rhyme.
very cool Stinky...youre just full of surprises  
*WW*   me

Well I looked to the sky for my anthem
The words and the music came through
But words and music can never touch
The beauty that I've seen in you

With the tic of tocking clock
you keep life's mysteries under lock

JM, Sunshine and Nan,
You are like my three faithful musketeers.
And I am blessed with your friendship. One for all and I love you all.
