An Omens Shadow Omens lace their filigree. Among the shadows jamboree Laying glitter on the trees Dancing mystery on the leaves Weaving spells upon the boarder Sweeping up the minds disorder Spilling mist o’er lover’s lane Tinctures on the eyes of vein And in this gray, hides a seem The phantom of your wile or dream That leads you into umber shades. Or leaves you with a flush in spades. You play the hand with soft transpire. And wait the ghosts of your desire. Grasp upon the spirits swell And try to read the echoes jell. But omens are of shadows wend. And seldom offers you an end. |

How does he do it, the people ask how? this righteous old fellow, I only say wow! Perhaps a machine, the energizer bunny, As regular as clockwork, he's bright, sad, then funny, But one things for sure, he always on the money. You are one amazing fellow with your daily poetic output. Enjoyed. |

Oh I just love the way you do what you do... this is classic Sy-guy poetry!! Just look at all the imagery and clever word play, look at the rhyme divine and the waaaaaay coooool lines that blow me mothy mind. Omens lace their filigree. Among the shadows jamboree Laying glitter on the trees Dancing mystery on the leaves that verse alone is poetic gold... look at the imagery you created with just a few perfect poetic words...with just two lines you got us all invisioning the trees sparkling...I just love how you do your imagery so grand in its succinct subtlety Tinctures on the eyes of vein that line is cooler than a mere moth has words for. That leads you into umber shades. Or leaves you with a flush in spades. Grasp upon the spirits swell And try to read the echoes jell. those couplets win the waaaay cool award for the day  But omens are of shadows wend. And seldom offers you an end. and last..but never ever least are those cadenced kissed closing couplets that you always tie your poetry up with a wisdom bow for us. Like I always say...youre too cool for school and ya wrote the poetic rule ( and this moth will always be your winkie fool) *L*   oouuu eeee oouu ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang ... |

JM, That is my twinky winky for the day. You know I'm on a diet. My ego has reached a heavy weight. I'm glad it's an invisable state. LOL WWRS |
