What Would I Do, Balladeer? |

What would I do without Balladeer? Inspiring me to write poems -- right His direction makes the process clear It's his inspiration I hold dear And drives me forward with pen held tight What would I do without Balladeer? I now write poems with joy, not fear Often writing until dawn's first light His direction makes the process clear Breathing softly, with my mind in gear Painting words on paper in the night What would I do without Balladeer? He's my mentor, his wish is sincere A love of poetry that's out of sight His direction makes the process clear So take it from me -- and just adhere Don't gnash your teeth. Don't put up a fight His direction makes the process clear What would I do without Balladeer? With love to my friend, Alison |

...and what would I do without people like you, Alison....people who love the art of poetry and take the time an effort to work at their craft and continue improving every day? I admire you, girl. You don't settle for "almost right". You work at it and , when you say your poem is a specific structure, one can be sure that it is. An excellent villanelle, my friend!  |

Thank you. I don't write much any longer, but that was fun. I might just have to try my hand at poetry once again. You truly inspire me. Alison |
