You Are You are the tale that never was Not once upon a time A memoir slash who-done-it Where for once nobody died You are the song that never played That still remains the same Where music is the coursing wind And chorus, is the pain You are the book nobody wrote On pages never turned With phrases that nobody read And lessons never learned You are the movie no one saw That isn’t hard to find Shining up against the wall In back of every mind You are the words no one has said That speak of hope and doubt Contentedness and sorrow Altogether and without You are the thought no one has had Or yet can not describe You are the spirit of the pen The soul of every scribe You are the verse no one has tried That always break a heart That dreams about an ending That nobody dares to start You are the poem that never was That holds and starts to squeeze Until the tears, begin to flow Your name, is Poetry Richy Freedom of expression is our, write. |

Richy~ How sad to think that to not pour our ink could be so very sad ... In each treasured line of poetry shared with others on this day comes the content of knowing a poet has spilled their ink so that their thoughts are growing~ I applaud your penning dear poet~ Nice to see you~  *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

nice ending...I like this phrase best: "On pages never turned With phrases that nobody read And lessons never learned" very lyrical |
