Of Specters

Specters show in forms of force
That lifts you up in winds of toss
And carry you to Isles of wiles
Where styles and riles are whirly guiles

They stir your senses to a boil
Cook them on a spit of foil
Render them to memory grease
Less the wick to burn in peace

They splutter like a popcorns bust
Full of sound and full of lust
Sanctioning a fantasy
A little bit of lunacy

They are the friction rubs of bind
That lights a flame within your mind
And turns a ghost to spirit host
To bring the fear that chars the toast

They lives within the echo swells
They are the sounds of memory bells.

Oh yes...they really are the sounds of memory bells, Sy, and how well I understand the thoughts here!  Always so good to read from your pen...~S~

Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life

Your specters sound hungry this morning, Sy...let's feed them biscuits and sausage gravy - we'll dine on bagels and lox, and flummox them with poetry...what do you say?

Morning Sy m'friend!
Wonderful morning read as always...
Much enjoyed.
~Morning hugs & tea, Nancy~

Poetry is not an opinion expressed...
it is a song that rises from a bleeding wound
...or a smiling mouth.

=====================================

I knew from the title this was gonna be a cool one but those verses rock..you and Randy are in rare form Sy-babes.

You pop the corn..I'll bring the butter.
and of course..winkies for Randy. lol

*ww*

I am sure of my reasons, embracing the seasons,
and the sacred simplicity of you at my side.
