A Picture

A Picture sits before my sighs
And smiles at me with jackal eyes
She surfs along each thought I think
And though a picture seems to wink

I talk to her in mental sweep
Of rivers run, that runs too deep
I work my paddle side to side
She smiles at me when asked to guide

Ferocious is the rivers rue
Precocious is my follow through
Anger wreaks my sinews torn
My mind adrift in spineless scorn

She knows the rye of currents ply
The spread of wings the air to fly
Yet there she sits in smiling bib
And will not voice a sound of glib

She teases me a friendly wend
But knows that I will find an end

Among the kingdom of the winds ...
perhaps there is one of elegant mind,
who has no need to intrude on the solitude of single things.

I shall draw rings around the poet
just so, that he should know it...

Always a pleasure to read your daily offering to us.  Ken

I think I'll keep the picture I have, LOL... It simply looks love when I talk to it. *G*

Excellent work, my friend... as always. *S* Alarm clocks are easier to endure, knowing your words are waiting. *S*

My father was just telling me that he speaks each day to the photo of my mother upon his wall - I know it doesn't really relate to this, but it is what I thought of, how pictures play to our hearts -

"She knows the rye of currents ply
The spread of wings the air to fly
Yet there she sits in smiling bib
And will not voice a sound of glib"

She knows that within Sir Sy
is the strength to swim and fly!!
