Zany Words Zany is the words that spar Echoing from the near and far Searching for the daffodil Lilies now upon the hill Shorter are the nights for me Sailing on a diamond sea. Weaker are the winds that blow Fewer are the seeds I sew. Dimmer is the misty shore Nearly closed the Adams door Nearer is horizons view, for To my look there’s nothing new. I do not fish I have no bate The line is short I cannot wait And thus to zany words I laugh These words that seem an epitaph Alas my friends disparity Has filled my bags sagacity. |

Leave the fishing to the fools... forget golf ... way too many rules. You only need your poets pen ... rhymed reprise writes you young again. I dont wanna hear of sagacity ... it's a waste of your infinity. They say you are young as you feel ... if we believe, then the fountain of youth is real. You have to live life long to have truths to be told ... It's just a fact, you cant be this wise and not be old. ~~~ ~~~ Balladeer and Sy??? Randy fishing LOL [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (10-24-2002 08:59 AM).] |

I do not fish I have no bate Seymour, sweets... that's just the time to go fishing! *G* If you catch anything, you have to clean it... just lie back and enjoy the dragonfly races and cloud formations... and conceal the gleam in your eye as you sadly shake your head at the end of the day admitting you didn't get a single bite. *G* As always, a delight to read. *S* |

seymour darling heart there you go spinning another glorious delight that covers my mind with such a delight. I used to be one of the early birds now I’m one of the night owls, what does this say about me? Possibly I’m turning into a creature of the night. Oh spooky. Who needs bait to catch a fish? You have the charm for a fresher dish And when you dangle the hook like so All those poetic phrases simply flow Onto your line and you catch them to Oh what is a poetic phrase to do? There it was not minding its fate But you caught it without a hint of bait But all the best phrases long to be Used in Seymour’s perfect poetry So the choice they have is this To lie free or to dance in poet’s bliss These words you sprinkle in poet’s line Like all your phrases are super fine Truly another sparkling wonder how do you do it day after day, I utterly utterly love it Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Shorter are the nights for me Sailing on a diamond sea. Weaker are the winds that blow Fewer are the seeds I sew. Beautifully said, Sy... but I think you still sew many seeds of lovely poems ~ loving chipmunk hugs Lyra |

Mr. T., your bags are so full of "sagacity" that it doesn't matter if you have fewer seeds to sew! ~ May your winds not weaken but blow stronger ever more ~ EA |
