The Dross of Pathos The grate of pathos makes for dross. From gray of loss, to beds of moss. Only time, can finish the plan. Fertile the moss, sweeten the man. Spring has gone and December cold. The fire old and does not hold. Its embers stir. They sigh for care. While slurs of ashes die of wear. Small embers search in hope and cling, New whorls of winds, another spring. Another flight of fragiles dove, A sometimes late and winter love. I asks no kind or homage lift, No dying kiss set me adrift. It would a final gusty cry, Aye, one more, one more lusty try. Although the fire fails of wear, The mind, the mind, still echoes dare. |

Kethry, I got it from an old clown, he did it all the time. Made tragedy into laughter. Thanks Keth. |

JM, Speaking of Randy, he just put on his double saddle and took off. I think he was headed in your direction. WW S |

Only time, can finish the plan. Fertile the moss, sweeten the man. ======================================== Its embers stir. They sigh for care. While slurs of ashes die of wear. Small embers search in hope and cling, New whorls of winds, another spring. ========================================== I asks no kind or homage lift, No dying kiss set me adrift. It would a final gusty cry, Aye, one more, one more lusty try. Although the fire fails of wear, The mind, the mind, still echoes dare. ========================================== *smiling at you* I need a new word to define your consistant clever word play... a new word to express my impress of your verbiage and rhymes, because ... "so cool" dont cut it...wont touch it...dont do you justice. Not even when I type it all in CAPS OF SO COOL ... not even when I spell it with a K for SO KEWL .... not even when I bold it SO COOL not even when I shout it ... SO COOL!!! nope...none of that says it well enough ... maybe I'll throw a dictionary at you LOL How about I serve Alphabet Soup at our next tea for two and we will spell with our spoons *winkiewinkie* me PS ... very very very cool poem Stinky *L* When your own emptiness is all thats getting through there comes a point when youre not sure why youre still talking... I passed that point long ago [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (12-30-2001 09:19 AM).] |
