The Poet by Linda L. Dowd With slip of sun at evening’s end ~ the poet’s mind will then transcend. He writes the mots within his seam ~ puts pen to paper as in dream. In stillness of the darkest nite ~ by flame of candle burning brite, the poet sits and ponders theme ~ puts pen to paper as in dream. From deep within his magic ink, lies sea of notions ~ deep in think. He writes a poem from just a gleam ~ puts pen to paper as in dream. A poet with his thoughts in stream ~ puts pen to paper as in dream. *+* |

~ A poet's pen holds the ink of love, dreams, and sorrow ~ Linda, you certainly captured the essence of a poet both in words and graphic. Lovely. |

With slip of sun at evening’s end ~ the poet’s mind will then transcend. A poet with his thoughts in stream ~ puts pen to paper as in dream. This is so very beautiful, my friend... I just wish the process flowed as smoothly as your words do. *S* But... I guess my cats would miss the "toys" if I didn't hurl wadded up balls of paper across the floor. LOL |

Earth Angel - Now you've gone and done it. You've taken Keats, Tennyson, Shakespeare and others and fused them into a beautiful outpouring of angelic poetry. I knew I had heard the fluttering of wings. This kind of creativity carries it own immortality. The great ones would be proud. I loved it too. Namyh |

Namyh ~ My goodness! I certainly wasn't expecting such a lofty response as yours! Your 'Words are Worth' their weight in poets' gold! By the way, that painting is of William Wordsworth! lol With humble thanks, I deeply appreciate your enthusiastic and HIGHLY complimentary comments. Love and Poets' Light, Linda |

Klassy One ~ My word, Karen, YOUR muse is coveted by many poets! ~ I, being one of them! ~ but that was very kind of you to say. In general, poets are my favourite kind of people! They are often expressive, observant, creative, philosophical, romantic, and great communicators. Hmmm! That proves that you are a poet, my talented friend! Linda |

This is quite simply magical, Angelo Terrestre! It is deeply inspiring you know. Your words are charmingly knocking at the door of creativity ... the door opens and there is that gleam you have so wonderfully woven into your poem ... Thank you for this. Bravissima! Love and hugs.
