A Mound of Splore Some would sit a mound of splore Counting beads forevermore Beads of faith that drop in wait Without discourse, without debate It is a form of sophistry Some would say epiphany But all are free to seek their goal And in the process save their soul I cannot say which one gives light Nor can I say which one is right I only say God bless to you And do what ever you must do. For me I sail the chaos sea And watch the stars that wink at me. Let the wind embrace my goal And steer a course to save my soul. So if we meet by chance of stray I wish you well along your way. |

"For me I sail the chaos sea And watch the stars that wink at me. Let the wind embrace my goal And steer a course to save my soul." Sy ... meeting you "by chance of stray" was one of the loveliest memories I own. This is a wonderful piece ... I love the flow and phrasing within. Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

So tell me once again what's splore and is it well worth fighting for have you said a mound of frolic now my head hurts - you give me colic If I get it right is there promotion or is it still a strange commotion it's all too well to wish God bless and go your way with tenderness but tell me, tell me, just once more what is this word, this thing called splore Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

'...For me I sail the chaos sea And watch the stars that wink at me. Let the wind embrace my goal And steer a course to save my soul...' Sy, this rips at my heartstrings this morning and strikes so personal. Thank you for sharing this. It is now hanging prominently on my refrig. On another note, I have no idea what a 'splore' is and couldn't find it in any dictionary, but it's a great word. Guess it can mean whatever the reader and writer want it to mean. Hugs and I raise my tea cup to you this morning ~~ Marti |

Seymour darling heart and painter of wisdom’s beauty once more your writing is simply stunning. I love this one darling heart, it is as smooth as silk which slips over my mind like a cloak of wonder. Truly you are excellent and I love it utterly Come and carouse along with me Say goodbye to conventionality Dive into the pleasure dome Let your thoughts to this just roam Fly up to the stars that shine Gather flowers bedewed with rhyme Tease your senses with all of this Wrapped within a poetic kiss Deny the will that tells you nay Come away with me to play Where the world spins into dream And takes a gift of wonders scenes Let me touch the dream once again And wash my soul in pleasure’s rain I love this utterly utterly utterly As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |
