She came |

She came Out of the mist of time she came Without a notice without a name. And I could not preform the gist Nor explain the beginnings mist. She showered me with wanton need Those things I thought were black of deed. Stirred my cauldron fired up jewels Defied the gods of earthly rules. She was the giver and the tender The reigning flower and splendor. The precious moment in my reach My fantasy and dreams beseech. I caught the echoes of her let By force of heart and seismic net. Felt the ringing and the toll Here in the chambers of my soul. What conjuration could I use To calm the dragon of this muse. Fired and fused the cauldrons blew And brought about a world of new. Now I hover the why of things And grow myself some dragon wings. |

I love how you start your verses in this one.. "Out of the mist of time...... She showered me with wanton need..... She was the giver and the tender..... I caught the echoes of her let... What conjuration I could use......." A great intro to a verse makes the reader want to suck the rest up like a sponge. Very well done..Bravo! |

Magical yes indeed. This has that hidden mystical power of the world that can drive a man to his knees. I really enjoyed this journey you have taken us on. |

Seymour~ This muse has filled you to overflowing - 'She was the giver and the tender The reigning flower and splendor. The precious moment in my reach My fantasy and dreams beseech.'

Amazing ... 'and grow myself some dragons wings' - I loved the idea, this is truly wounderful, adventurous and pictorgraphic in it's intricasy, I loved the deep images you creat and the contrasts between soft and hard sounds, I loved it . One of the best I have ever read . L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

Seymour, I made so many reads of this that I forgot to reply earlier... but who could blame me for such wonderful words presented... Out of the mist of time she came Without a notice without a name. And I could not preform the gist Nor explain the beginnings mist. .... What conjuration could I use To calm the dragon of this muse. Fired and fused the cauldrons blew And brought about a world of new. Now I hover the why of things And grow myself some dragon wings. Seymour, this is another brilliant work from you... regards, sudhir |

Sy - Now I hover the why of things.... You have an incredible sense of which words will work when they are used in unusual ways. I would never have used "hover" in that way, and yet it fits beautifully into that line. I always learn something new when I read your poems. You are a rare gem.
