My books, these men these poets, my friends do fill the bed I lay In pages writ, on fields of fret here does heart dismay with heavy lids, and words I fed now sleep where pen doth lay |

Martiniat8: Nice form, with finely trimmed words to describe the thrall of the Muse. I enjoyed this. Jim "We are stardust: we are golden: and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden." --Joni Mitchell "Woodstock" |

This piece reminded me of a thought I had the other day. I saw myself totally naked in a field, pen my only weapon, totally vulnerable and willing to fight the armored warrior, hiding there shielded from his own fear... Thx for the reminder. - Kosmic888 'we are all connected by strings of light' |

the pen truly is mightier than the sword! Yes, this piece was creative, but it was true, as well, most of my poems come from true happenings and events in my life. This is one of them, I've got like 8 books in my bed that Ive been falling asleep with, as well as my composition book and pen that are always beside me. It's really difficult for me to sleep without writing something first. |
