Swirling
Words
Caress the sides,
While the center whirl,
Pulls me inward.
Drowning
In poetic rambling baths,
Yet pleased,
Diversified
And pleasantly chilled,
By the onset of inspiration.
Words have a quality,
A joy
A tenderly sad, darkness even.
Whatever the theme,
Whatever the mood,
There are words,
Swirling,
And the center is the most appealing of all,
To get lost in,
To roll lazily around within.
And come out stengthened,
Then refreshed.

loved the flow and slow free fall feel of this..
well chosen format to accent the theme of the poem...
and yes...there are few sweeter pleasures than to be baptized in poetry

well done poetess Jenn

I miss you so much I cant stand it
Seems like my heart is breaking in two
My head says no, but my soul demands it
Everything I do reminds me of you
