Times Flow
Inspired by Seymour’s Ebb and Flow

I’d build you sandcastles grain by grain
Spin fairytale dreams in your brain
Turn back those waves lapping sand
Deny that time lies in hand
The rainbow’s gift of fairies wishes
I’d bestow bedewed heart’s kisses
Circles of light that danced with glee
Would bring the vision close of me

I’d search the heavens to bring a star
To light your way when it’s too far
Time cannot bind you in its line
Not while you have the gift of rhyme
You’re not held in tyranny
Release the rhyme that sets you free
We’ll swoop and fly in dream of song
Not notice time moving ever on

I’d build you castles of times sand
If you’ll walk into my wonderland
Deny time’s taste on your tongue
Instead live life that’s just begun
Breathe in the scent of evermore
On wings of pleasure you can soar
I’ll take you where you wish to go
Just let me catch you in my flow

SweetMarsha~ This is divine poetess...I love the soft beauty of it.  May I get caught up in the flow?

Mushy,
This is my most favorite poem of yours. I love the concept and the imagery. Full of awesome lines. Very well done indeed. A keeper.

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!

Marsha,
Indeed this is a magic poem
But a poem that I cannot roam
My world of self indulgence leads
To the penicillin of my needs.
My butterfly roams high and dry
The only apple of my eye.
But your friendship is not forgot
My daisy of forget-me-not.

(smiles) This is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, and may time continue to flow and may you be granted with all these rainbows and sand castle dreams always, sweet friend! (kiss on cheek) I can tell Seymour really loves this just as I do, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
