The Be of Not to Be I am the knight of nights It’s fantasy and flights The rearrange of strange Tumble weed of the range. Star dust my sward of choice The wind my ward of voice And love me love me not Is the pluck of my plot? Osmotic in minds find Exotic to the blind Philosophic in stay And then, I’m away. Quick silver to the clutch Evasive to the touch Filled with mists lonely sigh Lost to the real of eye. I am a dream you see The be of not to be. |

The rearrange of strange Tumble weed of the range. Star dust my sward of choice The wind my ward of voice And love me love me not Is the pluck of my plot? Osmotic in minds find Exotic to the blind Philosophic in stay And then, I'm away. Quick silver to the clutch Evasive to the touch =============================== COULD THIS POEM BE ANY COOLER???? what a delight of word play, rhyme banter and clever couplets. YOU are too cool for school ![]() The rearrange of strange Star dust my sward of choice The wind my ward of voice And love me love me not Is the pluck of my plot? Aint no question of to be or not to be... YOURE A POET and we all KNOW IT ![]() *winkiewinkie* ![]() ![]() ![]() |

'... Star dust my sward of choice The wind my ward of voice And love me love me not Is the pluck of my plot? ...' I love this stanza and found the whole poem somewhat different that what you normally write. It was great and I enjoyed it so much. Huggles to you, Marti |

To be a bee or not to be? "B" stands for Balladeer He always tortures me. There are some things About them "Bees" That few people know Here's about "Bees" That Toerag Sees Here's how the story goes: The bee is such a busy soul, He has no time for birth control That is why in times like these There are so many "Son's of "B's" |
