The Pen, Stayed held in one’s hand a beauty of a Cross marbled green gold in accent worlds and words flow through held in his hand it is stayed held in her hand it goes astray fountainglorious it roams across vast sheets of white or yellow or pieces of brown, anytheme and anywhere she would put it down in black or blue-black or blue on blue she queries not the source but credits her muse, and crew he would remove as if by surgery the pen carve it out and away but then again the fire comes to her hazeling eyes and he steps back in realize that her pen, he cannot stay that in her hand, and in her command, perhaps, though, not at her demand this is why, the pen, stayed for someday, he might understand, and for this…. …..she prays |

It would be a crime most felonious yes, a dsastardly deed most odious to stay a creative hand guiding pen he should be sentenced to serve two to ten. ![]() |

Decalflame--I had a Cross that is lost, but the words come without it. I'm glad the passion of your pen cannot be stopped. Wonderful poem! |

DecaFlame~ Understanding more than you could know ... and yet ... I'm sure you do. This is a loving plea ... 'for someday, he might understand, and for this…. …..she prays' and someday perhaps~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

My, my, my...this has to be my favorite of yours! May I take a copy for my favorites? May I dream that my pen might be so enamored with muse, to someone's eyes, someday? |
