My time, wistful like, draws on my wishes. My time demands some real closure from my wandering thoughts. I think again for that's what I do when that's where I've been. My wishes rise in fervor at the questions they cost. I welcome the change. My life a motion fanfare brings to me reality pain waiting for a purpose. My steps greet the world. I walk within the boundaries, where the normal scores. And evermore walks those streets from job to home kissing the day good-bye to resting with the window tube where all the sports scores are on. I slide into passions mind open, pen ready to create the wishes fashion. And there lives my muse all juice ready fed, just waiting with a murmuring. There are classics always using the wrenches of destiny once silent read, for each lost muse to write and speak, the chance again to make a mark. No worse for the poet's miracle to lie away from the desire within. Still I, a patron worldly wise who kisses hearts in poetdom, live for the words that dramatize those notes of tender sweet tokens spoken so honestly from everything. The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

Still I, a patron worldly wise who kisses hearts in poetdom, live for the words that dramatize those notes of tender sweet tokens spoken so honestly from everything. Loved the whole thing, but especially this verse, this is a very deep write Et, with lots of meat and I enjoyed it very much. In my library it goes. Thank you. Regards, Olias. |
