vicky, what a delightful way to say "the pen of the poet never runs out of ink." Terrific! Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Oh shoot...see what I wrote to Ketrhy and insert here...your muse is only on haitus, my dear, and this poem proves it! They love to tease us, our muses...and push us to write thus while they are out planning something Very Special... so I shall wait for the next Vickiepoem to appear...knowing it isjustaroundthe c o r n e r |

Hi Vicky..I think every one who writes understands the flight of the muse away and back. Good to see your poetry, and you! |
