Iambic flow shall not impede this plunge nor shall inherent lack of ending rhyme The content of this piece shall dictate what will float upon this page now set adrift No easy task this current pull is strong to ask for elements to fall in place The stroke of my intentions slips away reflecting more the riffles than the pools Expanding circles out beyond my range their forms become too vast that I might hold As if the hand that writes is of itself an entity complete not part of me Such thoughts perhaps at times may sound absurd yet here and now within crest full and flow |

"As if the hand that writes is of itself an entity complete not part of me" Exactly how I feel with this assignment! LOL Still working on it though. Again you did a great job Doc and in fluent iambic too! No rhyme... rhyme... how will I survive! |

Munda , Yeah , "Teach" really threw us a curve this time , and then she takes right off galavanting to Florida ! I think there might be another blank verse about that in the works ! Doc |

Beautiful use of blank verse... something I'll never achieve! LOL! Hats off to you, my friend! "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

Another perfect one! I think writing these things must be as natural to you as breathing! I love the humor in it too! Debbie |

Lovebug , Self imposed limitations are just that .I don't have any that I'm aware of .Thanks ! Doc Romy , Yes , sometimes this seems as natural as breathing to me , other times , I am sorely reminded of my short-comings . Thanks , just write , it will all fall in to place .
