Each moment Each moment time has past me by Each word I write is cast in fly The quickness of the up hill run Is fun until the downs begun? Beyond belief the fast of race There is no cast to slow the pace The process of the wear and tear Is eminent each flare of bare And time collects its toll of drain And lace by lace undoes the skein Until it bares the core of bare Shows every wrinkle every care Options turn a darker blue The wishing well has lost its spew And contemplation my dear horse Can no longer ride the course He bows his spoof on shaky legs And pours his hoof in dusty dregs |

SeymourLove~ Each moment that you poetically share is evidence, to me, that you truly care for friends in wait, who anticipate the morn of your words in soft adorn~ You 'age' well, my friend~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Good morning, T-Man! You may not be as fleet of foot as you once were, but there is the heart of a stallion still beating in your magnificent sonneteering self! As for your writing? ~ You continue to be absolutely brilliant! EA |

So let the horse now walk by you and cast your eye upon the view of vast green meadows and so much more for every day is beauty restored. Have been reading you... and finally a day to say thanks |

.................................... The quickness of the up hill run Is fun until the downs begun? .................................... In every picture, there is a certain spot that catches the eye and lets the imagination play, there is sweet irony and also reality in this: Worth peddling uphill for the free ride down? Climbing mountains seems hard on the way up, it's harder coming down though! I think the secret is to enjoy both the up and the down, I've certainly had a lot of both and both can either bring ecstasy or misery. Mind you there is one up and down that is usually fun (or is that for another forum?) I also love, and am intrigued by, a turn of phrase you use, which I originally picked up in another piece and thought it was to keep rhythm (Now I know it is the mind of the poet): fast of race, flare of bare, toll of drain, etc. Your poetry is a delight to read and carries simple reality in every line.....
