As vapor cooled condensed to mist by elemental bond is formed the thoughts that flow with subtle twist are polarised before the storm The mist collects on up-turned leaf repeated countless times and then what's come to be will seek relief as weight does cause the branch to bend Small droplets heed gravity's pull and fall enmasse onto the ground as vessels when they're over-full will burst unless surcease is found A trickle formed becomes a stream that rushes swift along it's path while deluged by so many things the words reflect their aftermath The stream into a river swells that courses sure down to the sea what has been left behind will tell a tale etched in eternity The sea from whose depths life has sprung now serves to keep one more child young |

Doc..... Speaking as one who has always had a love affair going with words........ I enjoyed this one tremendously! It definitely got my vote, and I would vote again, except there's only one box!!!!! Love received is equal to love given! |

Oh my...this is superb analogy, imaginative language, tender phrasing...simply put, a beautiful study of the creative process. Poetry of the soul, one might say. I loved it. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

DrMoose~ This is positively brilliantly perfect ! ! Oh, how it literally rolls off the tongue ... what a GREAT read-aloud piece. The cadence marches me along in perfect-stepped harmony. Be very proud of this piece ... it is of showcase quality. Oh, yeah ... and I like it, too !  ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
