Revenant Ramble
~*Marge Tindal*~

When spirits ramble, what care I ?
Ghostly curl of fingertipped sigh
Tap, tap, tapping of the quill
as words await shadowed spill~

Scratch the parchment
etch the sketch
not much use
in wording fetch~

Sit of Poe
in raven's crave
revenant ramble
from the grave~

Past the step of stoned defeat
grab of garble now in flee
Touch the head of stoned recline
read the engrave ... read the line~

Death cannot hold me pale
circling moon in phased regale
See the poet rot in word
nevermore ... to be heard~

Seance summon
beyond the time
Perhaps once more
in revenant rhyme~

Margie girl darling sister of my heart have you any concept how special your writing is to me? Always I read it and ALWAYS, But ALWAYS I marvel at how wonderfully your words flow. Lyrical and poetically dancing down the page to pirouette in perfect steps of splendour.

I love this one truly perfect. I love it utterly utterly utterly love it

and you KNEW I was going to say that didn’t you, Mmmm or course you did darling heart I may be predictable but I do have excellent taste
  

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy



Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

Marge,
loved this walk on the darker side from you. It has an eerie Poe feel to it.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Marge:  Is it possible Poe has become one of your muses?  Or perhaps he is guiding your pen in this one?

Hi ya Sis

    Just wanted to let you know I am here...  from time to time.

Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am.
To write of feelings that touch all hearts in some manner is my delight.

mind by this super poem.

Lucky !
'time to time' is not enough ...~
You and Rosemary are often in my thoughts ...
Thank you for the WONDERFUL e-mail~

You both are so busy with life ...
and tell Katie I said 'Kiss him gal'~
(Your papa story reminded me of the story of you and Rosemary !)

My condolences to Rosemary in the loss of her father ... and to you for the loss of such a dear man in your life~

Congratulations to Rosemary for the 'publishing' news !  I look forward to hearing when the book will be out~
(and don't forget me ... you scamp !)

Gosh ... e-mail will follow .... Honest Injun~
Love n' hugs n' sweet wishes to the whole family~

Paul~
I'd say that just catching you speechless is more than enough said~
Thank you sooooooooo much~
*HUGS*

This gave me a little shiver. Nice write from the "other side". I had the feeling someone was penning through you...
Very fluid, like clouds moving through air.

JellyGal~
Thanks so much~
I appreciate you~

SimplyGold~
Thank you ... actually you are 'very' right~
I came to turn off the computer ... and 'someone' took the quill of my mind and *gifted* me this write~
That happens often and I'm grateful for it~
Glad you enjoyed it ... even with the little shiver~
*Hugs*
