Somewhere deep inside me divorced from the everyday there's a dam of emotions secluded castrated untouchable the surface reflects nothing reveals nothing is placid calm unbroken until... a word, a deed, a view shatters the dam triggers the slip moves the boundaries and thereupon poetry gushes forth erupting spewing cascading spectators passing gaze in wonder at beauty abounding a cornucopia of bliss it then withdraws to the secret place silent stilled stifled and so do I... Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |

Well I'm glad that you let the dam break here at passions and let your feelings go because I for one enjoy the mental vision I am painting of "a cornucopia of bliss" and think that I'd like to hear of you in that state as often as possible...wonderful little gem this poem!!...take care...ethome.... |

Kethry, This was a beautiful piece my friend. May the words and thoughts always flow freely from your fountain. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Thanks everyone, given that my poetry is as old as me I think this poetic fountain must contain the elixer of youth for I always feel younger after writing. Maybe that's because i cry like a baby everytime one of my poems leave. Balladeer. "Gushing out in gimlets?" Are you saying I'm boring or screwed? Either way *laughs.* Be well everybody Kethry Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |
