A Poet’s Pondering Ink of pen speaks for scarlet lips Desire recorded on perfume paper Written words are smiles to heart Sorrow drinks of our blood no more So says the poet’s pen Flight of fantasy dreams you in Fuel body my sensual amorist Lust electrifies consuming me As two half souls clinch to one Such is the poet’s pillow Shall I daydream flowers of winter Reflect mysteries of universe Or ask of Heaven what it sees Powers of intellect focus on you For you, are all this poet ponders Marina Oct 27 2000 It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen Marina Crossley |

Oh my friend, how did I miss this one? This is so awesome and I agree with some of the others in that last line says so much. Hard to not let the pen touch what consumes us. Wonderful creation my dear friend. Big hugs to you. |

"For you, are all this poet ponders." Amazing how the thoughts in our minds are spilled out onto the paper...some sad, some passionate, some loving, some caring, some dreamy, some intense, and some very revealing. James |
