Of Gold and Mold

The stairway is a doubting one
In shadows gray without the sun
A conduit of memory lies
Of some hellos and some goodbyes.

It is a guide to roads we take
A sail upon a rainbow lake
There’s nothing firm of solid form
It’s misty mist and sometimes storm.

It is a tender part of us
Of mental rides a mental bus
An omnibus of self impose
The other halves of just suppose.

And symbols are the main exchange
The recompense of lever’s change
It fills our treasure house with gold
That very often turns to mold.

So hear me when my dragons roar
It is the essence of Seymour.

The stairway now is gilded light
for Sun has made it through the night
she heard a bit of Randy's roar
and when she came, she found Seymour

Seymour darling boy this is as always simply perfect. Sometimes when the inspiration twirls me around and spins me into dreams I reach out with my mind and feel you there in that sanctum of my poetic thought. Teasing me to stretch my mind a little more, calling to me to condense and distil that thought into pure drops of liquid inspiration. They fall on my page and I’m off again.

Truly wonderful writing darling heart, absolutely excellent. This is utterly utterly superb writing and of course I love it utterly

Love and warm stuff
As always

Nice touch Seymour!  I think I got the mold first. I like to start at the top you know. Like this verse
"And symbols are the main exchange
              The recompense of lever’s change
              It fills our treasure house with gold
              That very often turns to mold."

True! nice writing....nice essence!

It is a very gentle roar, more like a sigh
A very imaginative poem
Enjoyed reading

Ah Sy ... a beautifully rythmic flow, which is the essence of you, my friend. I'm sooooo very far behind in my reading, and needed a little Sy sweetness to get me going.

Loved this (and you know the best part? I could "hear" you reading this, as surely as if you were sitting right beside me ... what a treat!)

Best wishes,
/Kit
