A Shame The Mirror to Whisper Of Years but Compassion Of Sorts What You Show Me Through The Looking Glass when I’m Stirring The Water To Meet This Reflection of Fitting Imperfections.

I Used To Carry Melancholia A Few Years Back because I’m A Bird Who Cannot Fly when Moon Smiles and When Trust Is Gone (twice).  What Matters Not?  The Man or Nature at the Ending of Autumn when My Comeuppance the Night Knowledge of Change?

Sunday Last The Stinky Water Chant of Words, Lia Lia Lia – Bsa Bsa Bsa, not Apollo’s Song From Our Hearts On Warm September Days and this Hyper Text Markup Language - best It Goes Unwritten in the Here And Now.

I’ve Asked for Tunes Of More when Sharing Intimate Desires with Mountain Spirits up North but What Can We Do when Spandex won’t Hold you, my Dragonfly?  The Exodus of Mike From The North To Be like a Full Moon Thump-a-Rump and this from the Fortune Teller Attuned In Feelings when Out Of Focus.   Vento Va!  She’s a World Weary and Self Absorbed Dreamer or a Pagan Cloud Gazing!

Dance Me, Yes…Dance Me...if you won’t Marry Me By The Lake and give me Happiness In This Life but when Sun in Shroud, A Spanking said Chief Quanah Parker if you won’t Walk With Her under September Sunsets.  

If You Have Ever Thought At All of Petty Party Poopers who say, “Oh, Forget of Love And Lust And Women’s Eyes” you’ll stay Fenced In Willful Protection Awaiting Love forever.  

On Far And Distant Knoll Midnitesun Cooks By Remote Control the Dim Bones of your 2nd Love until Golden and the Echoes of this Poetic Potpourri to Shades Of Ash while you Sleep.  Is There Something On Your Mind or in Your Eyes to see only Dolphins When I’m Near You On A Stop Along The Road To Samhaim?   Lotionata!  No Moonlight Magic for you!  

Ok, My First Attempt At A Sonnet on a Stupid Computer when the Moon Rose in ’72 not a Write And Reply Of Southern Whispered or a Haiku but when Everything under a Full Moon is Raining Tears, You Won’t Forget Me!

Thank you Paul, ice, and LeeJ.  This is fun to do when one is numb and sometimes it weaves itself into what I cannot say. Glad you enjoyed.

Helen~This is excellent!!!
I so much admire a person with a talent like this.
It sure cannot be an easy project of putting all these titles together..
and having it make sense to boot!

Honey,
I was thrilled to make the list and these things are always lots of fun. Nicely done.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Thank you all for reading and responding.  It's actually very easy to do - just print titles and write.   Sometimes it may only make sense to me though so I'm pleased that this one makes sense to others.  Thanks again!

A bunch of us have done it before and always find it fun.

I love these, Honeybunch. I've tried to
do a few, but ususally from my love poems.
I don't think I've ever done one from
the whole groups poems.

Thanks for sharing this with us. I really
enjoyed reading it.
Hugs,
Ethel
