A Thumb to Plumb The time has come to place my thumb. Besides my mind and pull a plum. By that I mean a pleasant deem. Perhaps a fantasy or dream It takes but a moment’s time. To act upon a pleasant rhyme To set myself upon a stage And be a phantom of engage. To set a wile of old to visit To act upon prerequisite But there are dream and dreams you know And I’m not sure I want it so. There’s danger in a mind to sham And film flam can side track a scam You may release the ghost of bad And wind up in a dream of sad. So if your mind provides a plumb Check your figures and the sum. |

![]() (sigh) This had that song by the Rolling Stones, "Under My Thumb" reeling through my mind reading this, the best things are those to reach for and to keep them grasped can suffocate the when it always helps to just let them be free around you! (big hugggsssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

And in doing so, you touch my heart. ~ [This message has been edited by Enchantress (02-12-2003 09:28 AM).] |

There’s danger in a mind to sham And film flam can side track a scam You may release the ghost of bad And wind up in a dream of sad. So if your mind provides a plumb Check your figures and the sum. =============================== When adding the sum of your wisdom rhymes ... I hear the hum born in shifting sands of time. The answers will be found in your profound poets mind ... which is why I read you with these eyes born blind. Two plus two may not always add up to four ... but I can always count on you to know the score. ![]() *ww* ![]() ![]() ![]() |

hehehehe an adorable little ditty, especially the last two lines...I do think you want "flim-flam" rather than "film-flam," though. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
