Though cold-pressed codices of time’s ordeal
Deplete my determination to disclose
The ever enthralling leaves of verses ideal
Disquieting my soul’s ephemeral repose

Stealing my life, my thoughts, my candid imaginings
I linger, long, and lust for abbreviated gleanings
Watching jewels of thoughts and words pass by
Gems of verbiage scrolling quickly past the eye

Always chasing, never gaining, the bards appear
Then go, then flee, I’ll never catch up in here!

With your talent I wouldn't worry

As TD said you might end up leading the pack

At least you learn to do without sleep as well

Though I appreciate the lavish compliments and heartfelt encouragements, I feel I must confess that I simply meant that I would never catch up in reading all the wonderful poetry that was written in my short absence from the boards.  It can be overwhelming when trying to catch up on all the good writing.

Thanks to all who read and commented.
