The Course Of My Imaginings |

If you'd allow me I would set a course that goes meandering, whose only purpose is to let we two begin imagining. In circles we'd approach the point where nothing more would block our view. Two dreamers who could share their thoughts, if such a thing wouldn't frighten you. Should we begin to make this bond, would I then feel you pull away ? As words are not a magic wand they have no powers to make you stay. Yet, if you'll walk with me awhile along this path beneath the blu- est skies that I have ever seen then, "magic", might occur to you. I visit here, most times alone, companionship's a pleasant change. Together we can watch the sun- light fade, and more than passing strange, it's almost if I've known you for a long , long time, see how the stars appear to drift much closer now we've come this far. "Where will this lead?" I hear you say, somewhere in my imaginings, I answer you without a word, let's just see what the future brings.

I just love this... and whose to say: Should we begin to make this bond, would I then feel you pull away ? As words are not a magic wand they have no powers to make you stay. words to me have a lot of staying power..if followed through... nice, very nice Dr. M |

Good morning, Doctor! I have become one of your regular readers over the past month or so. I like your stuff sooo well that I thought I'd mosee over here in a search to see what else you've written. Has anyone every told you that you take nice x-rays before? Especially of the funnybone. I enjoy your humor and wit in a lot of your poems, however, this one does lead to a different imagination. Whoever she is doc, I bet you have her attention with this one! Good luck! Sadie |

Sadie, Thanks, and no, I can't say anybody's quite put it like that before. Of all the forms and pieces that I write, the most rewarding are the ones that get a chuckle out of someone. Thanks again. Doc |

Hey Doc...I loved the pleasant invite of meandering, but the construct of this particularly caught my eye: "Yet, if you'll walk with me awhile along this path beneath the blu- est skies that I have ever seen then, "magic", might occur to you. I visit here, most times alone, companionship's a pleasant change. Together we can watch the sun- light fade, and more than passing strange," That carrying over of syllables added some interest for me--as I find it made the verse that much more fluid. Thanks for the read, Doc! always good... |

serenity, Thanks. I wrote this as is, in iambic octometer, was going to make it eight iambs per line, but decided they would be too long, hence the " carry-over". I guess that's allowed, it seemed to read without that much interruption except for the one short line which I already mentioned. I'm glad you liked. Doc |
