A walk in the sun |

(This is a repost) A Walk in The Sun Shallowing in a tropic sea Gathering antiquity's birth I dawdle in serenity. The body warms in sundry rays From whimsy's sip of mental mirth A tea baptismal in the waves. Absorbed in my temerity Left high and dry from neap's full worth I steep in rare exotic tea. Sacrosanct and minuscule. With inquiries of a fool. |

Well I got my suit, snorkle and fins, where is this place. Oh, yes I got my favorite tea cup too. Such nice imagination Seymour< !signature--> The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

Seymour- Only you would use the 'neaps' and remind me of the midway tides so affected by the moon that I love to write about. My, how I'm fascinated. You continue to amaze me. Love ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

From Sy's poetry I always reap A wealth of new words such as "neap" To many this word's within reach But I live far from any beach So to my dictionary I ran To try to keep up with this man But that's impossible! (In fact,I had to look up a couple. I'm quite ignorant) But the poem is reminscent of many days along other shores. Very lovely, Sy Love ya Liz |

What I wouldn't give for a nice "dawdle in serenity" right now, Sy. Great poem, I could feel the warmth on my face. Michael |

Oceanic sound Remands to me The wisdom of the deep. Resurgent pound A heark'ning sea In surfeit at its neap ~~~ as is your poetry, my friend... |

Hey there Sy - missed ya!! Well, only you would use the word neap - yep, only you! And of course it works well. Quite a lovely poem I must say. How are you anyway? K 'Writing sharpens life; life enriches writing' Sylvia Plath |
