A Velvet Glove There’s a rhythm to my rhyme A simple humble line in time Like rolling waves that pave unsung A transcendental hand and tongue As pressure molds the finest surf Just so I’d rhyme a smoother turf And soften graphic filigree The epitaph of disagree There is a dust I would erase To make a garden in its place A minuscule but point of clear Oasis for the heart and ear What treasure could I leave behind? To soothe the aching of our kind Some words above the flaccid dust That flies above the acid crust. A pure white dove of rhyming love A net of warmth a velvet glove [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (03-30-2002 11:46 AM).] |

wonderfully rolling waves of rhyme that create a need for pondering I do think you want 'soothe' rather than 'sooth' forsooth my good man ;o} Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

from the velveteen mind spoken with a silken pen the caress of your words is filled with attentive care of language, heart-song, and great ability. tSR |

Seymour my dearest friend this is awesome, truly exceptional writing. The words alone would have made this arresting reading, when it’s combined with your amazing skill or form it’s utterly utterly perfect. YOU know I adore your writing, simply adore it, you have the skill to write in a whole range of styles across the board. I sometimes wonder why I’m not insanely jealous of you darling heart, I suppose it’s because I know I’ll never be this good. Oh and maybe because I adore you too my dearest friend, you are simply the best. You do know I really LOVE this don’t you? I thought you would pick up the subtle and delicate nuances of my rapture. That too is one of the reasons I adore you, you always know when to laugh Fabulous writing darling heart utterly utterly fabulous  Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
