How can it be that my words are metaphorically aggressive used to illustrate my desire declarations in the suggestive Can I not just illustrate in figurative way of speech a pun used to pique your fancy since you are out of my reach In profession of these feelings hidden in the humor of my rhyme sparked by pun and allegory with the innuendo to time I seek the smile that only you can bestow upon this page born of wisdom, grace and love simmered in the heart of a sage Understand the phrase I pen tremble not as I write my seeking let me have what’s in your heart metaphorically speaking |

Understand the phrase I pen tremble not as I write my seeking let me have what’s in your heart metaphorically speaking Someone once told me that good poetry describes something totally with imagery, and not with the words which are usually used to describe it... and I think thats what you have done so very well with this poem... Its a metaphor of a metaphor  ~ poetic hugsLyra copyright2002 Lyra Nesius "poetry is life distilled" Gwendolyn Brooks [This message has been edited by Madame Chipmunk (07-20-2002 12:37 AM).] |

How you do this over and over again with such grace amazes me. As the saying goes " A picture is worth a thousand words" This poem is worth a thousand pictures. Paul |

okay you've stolen it away I hope that that's okay for I'm quite timid to say as you may not have meant to say or make me feel this way any of an hour of this day but I guess that's the price you pay for making a metaphorical generality  Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
