as you feast on passion's feed restrain this your writer’s greed take those words upon this page hie them to thee for an age words that simmer ere are tossed meanings within now seem lost what purpose serves your poetry pulled unripened from the tree do not hasten your words in rhyme pluck them not from poet’s vine watch them ripen in passion’s sun post them not til they are done *special thanks to serenity for the phrase that started this poem. I had no idea where it was going or what it would be like when it got there! [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 11-18-2001).] |

this is truly inspiring I cannot tell a lie it is inspiring makes me think when I want to post three a day of fluff and get so sad hearing things like "Walt this can't be you its too good!" What does it all matter I ask myself isn't poetry supposed to be for me? |

Poet deVine, I like this verse three was my favorite.. especially the first two lines.. "do not hasten your words in rhyme pluck them not from poet’s vine..." Very cool Hugs, Tara "My heart is like an open book, for the whole world to read" |

well done. . . the meter is excellent, and the words flow freely. . . and of course, I'm not surprised to see serenity's name tied into this. . . -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
