Chantilly Lace I braise my poems in rhyme and phrase Ablaze them to avoid malaise. I pepper them to audit awe But always leave an exit door. I glaze the words in spews of brew See through views of symbol cues and Place the threaded chantilly lace About the head it will embrace. I try to fit it to the mind Massaging all of human kind With dare and care I place it there This lace to grace its loving heir. I do not prosper all I sew Some minds and hearts I do not know But I try, I try, always try And if I miss I sigh a sigh. And say be kind my near embrace It is my dear chantilly lace. |

I like, I like *s...I think you succeed very well at all attempts to drape your lacings around those who view your words and thoughts..*sighing* ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

By you words penned of lace ... I feel the warmth of your poetic embrace. Your rhymes of gold dance with grace ... of my malaise ... granting chase. Words of wisdom ... on the heart engraving trace ... always to leave a sigh(SY) on my lips ... and a smile on my face. *winkiewinkie* later-make me sigh-gator me When to the sessions of sweet silent thought, I summon up remembrance of things past ... I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought. ~Shakespeare~ |

Writing is like trying out a new recipe..you just never know how it will turn out ..sometimes you have to go back and doctor it up a little ha.. Loved it Seymour.. ~V~ A poem is never finished, only abandoned. - Paul Valery (1871-1945) |
