I Would the Feel

I wash my hands of paints illusion
And hunger for the touch of sound
Tired of those wrought delusions
I would the face of real around.

I would my hand to touch your skin
Within the process of exist
I would my heart to sigh within
Without the mist of wanes desist

I’m tired of the fantasy
Rebel against the frozen mist
I would the real of ecstasy
Before I fall into the gist.

I hold my head in weary wend
And seek the shelter of a door
I would no phantom be my end
I would the glory and the gore

My hand is out to feel that touch
Without the aid of psyches crutch

*hand held out*

oh my oh my oh sweet Sy ...

OHHOWILOVEWHENYOUWRITELIKETHIS!!!!

those first two verses leave me moth weak in the knees.

What a bittersweet beauty this is...
Randy angst wrapped up in classic Sy couplets of oh so lovely poetic phrasing.
Im gonna need a new wing added on to me Sy-babes library.


~~~~~
If words but could they would ...
would they, could they be enough?
Would they say all need be said ...
heart on sleeve, confessions off the cuff?

If words but could they would ...
could they speak a heart so true?
Would they say the true intent ...
would they define then do justice to you?

If words but could they would ...
could they overcome this distance?
Would they precede the miles ...
take the path of less resistance?

If words but could touch across time and space ...
so you would feel the love of this poetic embrace.

When all the superlatives have been used..
may I just say 'thank you sir'...well done!
Now...tea's brewing...shall I pour?
~Morning hugs & tea, Nancy~

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.

Seymour~
Here I am teaching a poetry class ... sharing YOUR works with some mighty impressed students~

They see the word-master at work ... and are inspired~
You show them more by example ...
than I can put into my own lesson plan~

THANK YOU~

LOL, Seymour, when I copied and pasted the above to quote the part that I related to the most, I didn't know that Janet Marie was quoting the same lines.  LOL


It is so true, though. Fantasy is good, but  real  is so much better!!!
