A Rose of Steel A blacksmith made a rose of steel That played just like a glockenspiel Each leaf rang out in true delight To play its music day and night It reached the height of mountain tops And sifted through the farming crops It over shot the church bells ring It rang a magic flavoring He set it on a markers stone To resonate an undertone To keep a spirit company His added touch, theophany And to this day within the breeze And whispering within the trees Plays the black smiths rose of steel A symphony of loves appeal It plays each day the winds airstreams And also plays within my dreams |

Your title is wonderful. I very much enjoyed the music of this poem. It still resonates, just as the rose of steel. TD |

I loved this poem. I truly do appreciate your talents. Writing poems in any syallable count is challenging. Keeping them the same is "hair thining to me" I truly do admire your poetry, and hope in the future I can write as good as you do.  |

Seymour~ I adore your gentle words in sway for I believe that on this day indeed you brought a view to me of my very own theophany~ That is as pretty a piece of poetry as I've seen come from the inking well of you, my friend~ Thank you again for being a poet~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Seymour, Did I say I liked your poetry? I am amazed by your imagination and how you pass it on to others, Namaste, Ivor The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. |
