Rewrite Repost: My Blue Rose My glories on a tender stem This purpose I pursue. A crown of thorns is diadem Its majesty shows blue. It vacillates from whim to whim Its roots no common soil It thinks my adjuration dim And I, a foolish foil I cannot help this love I bare. These minions of reveal I cannot hide this heart of care. Nor can I bare conceal. It has a will of ceaseless tease. It titers at its mark Impossible to make appease The mark is moonless dark. I would it stop this endless broil And set the pot to flame and boil. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (edited 12-09-2001).] |

I am glad you reposted this. It's lovely, "diadem" reminds me of a song we sang in grade school. What that has to do with the poem I don't know! But I enjoyed it very much. Kathleen (Kay) |

Oh, if only we could just stare at the water in the pot and concentrate hard enough ... but unfortunately, getting it to boil that way never seems to work. But sometimes all it takes is time. Or maybe a different pot will suddenly start simmering. Wonderfully written, Seymour. You rock! ~What is cherished most is what must be the hardest fought for.~ |

This poem is awesome! I got a little confused with "diadem" too...were you saying a royal crown is just a crown? The line still read well, however, so I'm not suggesting you change this at all...*claps* bravo! ^_^ LadySofia |
