An Apple A Day |

An Apple A Day Each day I take a fantasy pill A placebo if you will. For it stirs the wind and drives my ship Gives me a resolute grip. It out sails the mundane of my day The ravages of our way The rages that make my eyes to tear Blood to curdle flesh to sear. It soothes the storms the black of the blight Lights a candle in the night. And makes a garden of the forest Turns me a geneticist. Gives to me the wonder of control Lightens the payment of toll. Shows me the treasure of the rainbow And the true white of the snow All of this on a butterflies flight Without the payment of wrong or right |

Could you share a little of this with the rest of the world Sy. I think we all need a bit of YOUR perspective. Love this one! |

Spoken as a "Walter Mitty" twin. Enjoyed the read, moments of fantasy can be invigorating. |

You are the apple of my eye Your poetry makes this butterfly sigh You're my spicy slice of winkie pie To your garden of Eden I wish to fly As long as you dream ... as long as you believe You'll be my "apple a day" ... and I'll be your Eve *winkiewinkie* ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep. |

to read the why of your plea and ply to sing the gift, receive the lift to come and warm some cold within is why I read you, again, and then |
