The Island Each an Island unto oneself Wishing the world of dreamers bliss Dancing in wile a phantoms elf Waiting for eternities kiss. And we bloom just like a flower We raise our faces to the sun And make the best of every hour Until our last of time is done A garland thrown into vortex Each separate one a piece of rhyme Woven by the needle sex And placed upon the sands of time. Wherein each grain passes through A cylinder of daily wears Where eyes shine back the mirrors view And turns again to count the fares You have dialed the eternity wheel And will be charged without appeal. |

A garland thrown into vortex Each separate one a piece of rhyme Woven by the needle sex And placed upon the sands of time. Wherein each grain passes through A cylinder of daily wears Where eyes shine back the mirrors view And turns again to count the fares You have dialed the eternity wheel And will be charged without appeal. ==================================== YOU ARE SO COOL!!!!! You say these come harder and harder for you...yet look at what you come up with!! A garland thrown into vortex Each separate one a piece of rhyme Where eyes shine back the mirrors view And turns again to count the fares You have dialed the eternity wheel And will be charged without appeal. Look at these lines... at the imagery...the metaphor and analogy...the wit and wisdom... the irony and the impact....those closing couplets are so clever and cool..SO CLASSIC YOU!! The whole theme of this is classic Sy-babers poetry...and as always rhyme divine. I do so love the way your poetic mind works...and though you will say differently...it WORKS damn fine...your pen proves it every time ![]() *winkiewinkie* ![]() ![]() We wish ourselves beautiful ... and cry in the night. |

JM, The top of the morn to you dear Tinkerbell. You must be having honey for breakfast, for some of it spilled over on me. Just imagine two roses for you. One from Randy and one from me. Winkiewinkie Randy Stinky. ![]() ![]() |

Seymour darling heart and holder of the mornings light, magnifique, n’est ce pas? Tu ecrie cela lui tient a coeur. Padon mon cheri, j’ai palais Anglaise. This is very very close to my heart, this speaks to me, it speaks with the resonance of beauty and peace. This is awesome You write and the world stands still to listen, wonderful writing, fabulous metaphor and stunning imagery again YOU darling heart shine bright. I love it utterly utterly utterly. I’ve been off chasing rainbows and painting butterfly wings, but I’ve returned to my natural home and here you are with a positive dream of delight. I can always rely on your words to speak to my heart, they always do and in such a clear and perfectly beautiful voice too. Thank you for this wonderful dish of dream. (See you tomorrow Seymour darling boy, I might be late but at least when I arrive I bring smiles with me) As always Mushy ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Breathe through the heat of our desire |
