A Merry go Round

The nimbus starts with lines of care
Phrases passing the mind with flare
A key that turns the engines heart
And pumps the blood to make it start

It catches like the nettled rose
Wearing old familiar cloths
Grabs the focus of the mind
And wakes up every tie of bind.

It comes upon a wind of sway
Enters into users play
Makes the person stop and think
And it happens in a wink.

It is a phrase that lights a fuse
To burn until it lights a muse
It’s then the theaters curtain parts
And starts the drama of its arts

It happens many times a day
It is the stage on which we play

So many lines here for me to love Sy..
I'm just not going to choose one or two this morning.
It wouldn't be fair to the rest of this wonderful piece.
May I just say how very much this was enjoyed?!
Tea's on...I'll pour.

Ah yes. Well..I wish someone or something would light a little spark in my muse! She seems to have wandered off somewhere. Wonderful words yet again this morning Seymour. Toasted English muffins with jam? Okie Dokie. hugs, Chris

(sigh) Funny how sometimes the drama is all centripetal, you just get in the cycle and it all seems to reel before you and when you get off and move around it can feel dizzy! (big hugggsssssss) Wonderfully said, sweet friend, I enjoy this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I wish it were true, Sy guy. Instead of it happening several times a day, I'd be happy with once in a while!! I don't even remember where the stage is!!

Write on, Sy
