Reasons I laugh, I cry, I watch the sky My conscious can but heave a sigh. It’s why I put the real aside And favor more the muse abides. I write of beauty, flowers preen And mystic gardens of my green Of phantoms, loping in my rhyme A witch’s broom, to pass the time I often use butterfly wings Full of the hews of coming spring. And float in morning’s golden glow Sailing the flow of the rainbow. And when I still a nectars field I drink my fill of honeys yield. And with the mornings snow white dove I wrap myself in the lace of love. I ask you, are these worth the guile The cost of just the smallest wile |

And with the mornings snow white dove I wrap myself in the lace of love. I ask you, are these worth the guile The cost of just the smallest wile ================================== Well it always works for me Your wile tis the raspberry in me tea  "And when I still a nectars field I drink my fill of honeys yield." Could those be any cooler? "still a nectars field" ... yer so kewl  love the imagery and intend in this Sy-babers ... your guile makes me winkiewinkie's smile *L*    When man is lead to arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations |

Seymour~ If I looked all day ... (and half the night) I'd not find a more beautiful thought than this - 'I wrap myself in the lace of love.' Yeppers ! Not just 'worth' it ... priceless~  *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

to speak thru the mouth of words and that, that my friend, is reason enough to inspire your glorious writing. I laugh, I cry, I watch the sky My conscious can but heave a sigh. It’s why I put the real aside And favor more the muse abides. One small niche in my craw, tho, wouldn't the 2nd line be 'consciousness' and the the fourth line be 'favor more what the muse abides?' delightful writing, Sey! hats off amigo to ya! jeff [This message has been edited by ShadowRider (06-08-2002 08:53 PM).] |
