Perfectly Undone Rainbow I’ve been waiting across this long day as the keys glare their silent letters waiting for delicate blue eggs with thin transparent shells to open some tender thought I can hear this ticking slowly savoring time drain and have simmering fragrance around me for reminiscence The bullion bubbles cascading with memory but this draught still seethes with hungering So I press an asterisk and see how an eight is so conclusive and perfect circling into itself and I think that time must be like that with no beginning to teach it how to end a bubble has exploded somewhere so quiet and absolute from child-touched treasure to a perfectly undone rainbow Where does this matter display its intent and grace my alphabet with a period?

This is lovely, Martie! Gosh, what a poet! Even your writer's interlude is a lovely song to my ears! Love and hugs, Lizzie ![]() "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

"and I think that time must be like that with no beginning to teach it how to end" Martie, where do these wonderful thoughts of yours come from? There is so much originality in every one of your poems. That's why I'm addicted to them - a new "high" every time Love you Liz |

Forget the "8"'s, Martie. When I want to think of you, I'll fill the page with "10"'s in tribute to you and your wonderful poetry. ![]() |
