If I should bleed a poet's drop of blood Onto the page of life where I abide Or if the words I bleed are silver shod Reveal the heart or depth of soul inside Then could my heart be blessed and knowing true The blood of poets flows within my veins My heart aware by flowing words made new As poet's song goes forth in streets and lanes Then would my heart be strong and sometimes blest As poet's write returns me to my home For poets' are a breed - a world apart Where I can find a gentle place of rest My poet's blood can cease the yearning roam At home in words of poet's wandering heart Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Sometimes I think poets know each other instinctively...it's always a comfort to find, "one of our own", and it's always a treat to read YOU, Keth! |

Keth, You bleed poet's blood You cry poet's tears You cough poet's phlegm Poetic wax is in your ears. You sweat poet's sweat You drink poet's beer And all of this because You are a poet, dear ![]() |

Then would my heart be strong and sometimes blest As poet's write returns me to my home For poets' are a breed - a world apart Where I can find a gentle place of rest My poet's blood can cease the yearning roam At home in words of poet's wandering heart I very much enjoyed this read...

Keth darling heart sister and shiner of the stars light how utterly utterly wonderful is this poem of yours, and there is no way it should have fallen so far so quickly, as always it is not a reflection of the quality of your writing it is the sheer weight of poems posted over it. It’s obvious darling heart your fan base is wide and healthy. Have I told you that you are an exceptional writer lately? Well you are, extremely so. Now back to the poem the content is especially noteworthy Wonderful writing darling heart absolutely wonderful I love the way you’re growing lately darling did I not tell you this copying styles was a great idea, you have got the feel of Rupert Brook here perfectly. Exquisite writing as always and I love it utterly utterly ![]() ![]() ![]() Love and warm stuff As always Mushy ![]() ![]() Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Auntie Kethp hi there Finally I get the chance to get on here and reply, it’s a nightmare, mum should be shot at dawn, but I don’t expect that I could get the court to convict her. I don’t think computercide is actually recognised as the crime it is. ![]() This is a really wonderful piece of writing, the flow is exquisite you’re your writing really is exceptional, and this flows like a dream. Perfect form as well, if ever I think you cannot get any better you prove you can As always Krissy ![]() ![]() ![]() And while thy willing soul transpiers |
