Think of the Grass Lust stays sway above the grass Impressed by just a moments pass And filigree dances spree Amongst the shadows of debris And breath on breath hovers sweet Above the dissipating heat Taken up on spindles wrap To package up a day of map A day of quest a day of crest A day of zest that heaved my chest A day that bubbled up and curled The leavings of an afterworld And thus a page of stay is left Taken from the day in theft And placed above an alters store A mirror to eternals door To live upon the fern and sea And turn my hearts forever key. |

"A day of quest a day of crest A day of zest that heaved my chest A day that bubbled up and curled The leavings of an afterworld" What a wonderful piece Sy ... I loved the lines above particularly, with their internal rhymes ... I just had to read that out loud. Well done! Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

Think of the grass, count the leaves afterwards just allow me breathe for pages turn, as pages do and I would walk the quest with you... |

JM, Good morning love from both of me. It is raining outside and a day to stay inside. But I will be passing your way in thought. Perhaps to say a brief hello or share some raspbery jello. I'll hold your hand in fairy land and speak to you of time and sand. And then we'll fly into the sky on the broomstick of why. Of cource Randy will be scratching his head but what do dragons know?

I hold a high regard for the majority of your poems, but, this one is beyond exquisite! It flows like silk and has such zing and depth to it. You must dream in metaphor and meter?! Sy, this poem is just too cool, I really enjoyed it. This is begging to be a keeper Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |
