My deer She stood in a summer morn, Motionless, after dawn, Where gentle light painted round, Shadowed figures on the ground. Beautiful, her head held high, Eyes that searched woods and sky. A picture of grandeurs dwell, Only its breath broke the spell. She lingers, my conscious brain, Amongst, many treasures lain And upon a summers morn, I can see her in the dawn. Beauty grows in fragile plumbs, Only when the mind succumbs. I pray your mind be germane, To treasures, in your domain. Where lies the beauty of sight, Also lies the soul of light. |

Well, whether to your "deer" or your "dear", it reads beautifully, either way. |

Hey! Leave Sy alone! If he wants to write a poem about me, he can. Thank you, Sy. |

Oh, deer ... what can the matter be? The dear is in my sight. If Seymour can't tell a dear from a deer how will I ever get it right? Seymour was just having folly, what a deer, deer one. Now look what he has accomplished ... He's gone and made a little pun! ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Severn, Enjoyed your comment, and never is a long time. Sunshine, Did you ask Denise if she wants to share? Marge, Thank you for the little poem, but a pun is a pun is a pun. |
