Dressed up in ten thousand hues The sky was reflecting the ground Somewhere in the garden of Muse Golden leaves were hiding a noun Collecting the nectar of valuable thoughts Poets and writers resembled the bees Filled with the themes, ideas and words Ripened verses hung off the trees Blowing around the worn out cliches Autumn’s breeze swept through the garden Breathing the mist straight into my face The evening seemed lively and ardent Lurking around the face of the clock Hands of time crept on their toes And leaving the garden I felt on my back Stares of praise and bewildered applause ------------------ I fell in love and kept on falling |

Master...beautiful poem. I can't describe it as anything but that. ------------------ "Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a cage." -Billy Corgan- |

This poems makes me think of a place where a lot of the romantic American writers from the mid 19th century gathered for awhile, I don't remember the name of it, but I think it was owned by Emerson. You weren't by chance talking of this place were you? Anyway, love the description, you really know how to make one see what you're seeing. ------------------ "I went into the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front the essential facts of life, and to see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I never lived." -Henry David Thoreau "All comedians want to be rock stars, because they're cool. They always look like they're about to vomit. They have that rap before the song that doesn't make any sense 'A long time ago, there were lots of people, but that was a long time ago.'" -Dana Carvey |
