This is a rewrite. The poets poem Each poet writes between the bind. Their innuendos for our mind. They launch them with a tender flair, With phantom strings that hold them there. Amongst the flowers of their poem, Are secret fears that will not comb. Hidden under shadowed sheath, Secluded in a secret wreath. They drain their souls in self embroil, Weary themselves in sweat and toil. Hide each gem in self deny, With colors of a butterfly. Then hold their breath for one to read, The vail of message they have seed, Amongst the offer of their tea. And pray to God in true you see. So if you read a poets poem, Search carefully what they has sown. |

I'm sure I remember this, Sy. Marvellous - draining the soul indeed. I wonder where I dredge my words from sometimes! And I also wonder - would we be true poets without ears to hear our songs? (And I have searched carefully and seen one little has that should be a have... *twinkle*) |

Seymour: Sometimes, your honesty with words gets inside of me and I think you know when I talk, exactly what I mean... HUGS Poet! Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... |

Sy, Whatever seed that you have sown Is many times to me unknown For I am usually swept, you see By the beauty of your poetry And fail to realize or find A meaning of which I'm total blind So I'll continue as such reading your poetry And hope that God decifers for me This poem is beautiful As is all of your work Liz |

A sigh for Sy. In the dew of little things, the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. (ee cummings) |
