I’m The leaves that dance the wind in sprawl The waters of the waterfall The brew that steeps this tease of tea The phantom and the fantasy The drop that makes the circles wrings The flavor of the touch of things The splinter of this center page The winter of this day of age The hand that waves to you goodbye The breath that heaves a sorry sigh The wink that winks this stories tale The foam that disappears the ale I’m all these things and many more The entrance to the misty door The essence of the tints of life The pied piper and the fife I thank you for your patience friend This tongue in cheek this silly wend. |

You know Sy ... whenever I want to smile, all I know that I need to do is read your beautiful morning offerings, and my day is off to a wonderful start. This was absolutely lovely in form and flow. I'd copy my favorite lines, but that would be the whole thing. Morning to you sweet Sy! Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

"I’m all these things and many more The entrance to the misty door The essence of the tints of life The pied piper and the fife I thank you for your patience friend This tongue in cheek this silly wend." Wonderful rhyme and flow from you this frosty morn Sy. When are you going to tell me how you do this every day? ~Morning hugs & tea, Nancy~ ~ Is that love I see in your eyes... |

Hey Seymour...are you sure you are not describing me? LOL! Love it my friend. Great piece you have here. Seems we were both trying to describe ourselves this morning. You'll have to check out my piece Flaming Candles and Ink Stained Spills for my description of me. You made my morning my friend. Talk to you later. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |

Dearest Sy... I rarely quote lines because I like seeing the whole poem as an entirity...but, this morning you've "forced" me to see one particular line: "The flavor of the touch of things" Oh, my...yes! I absolutely love "thinking/seeing/feeling/assigning" unique aspects to things other than what is normal. This is exquisite...as is the whole verse. You are a wonder! Thank you! Love and Light...jc This I know as Truth...we are all Beings of Light. |

The hand that waves to you goodbye The breath that heaves a sorry sigh The wink that winks this stories tale The foam that disappears the ale Oh... you ARE... wonderful. *S* I love this, my talented friend! *S* |

Seymour, Good morning, poetic friend. I read this when you first posted and thought I had responded. Guess not... BUMP time! Again, much enjoyed. ~Sadelite~ Yes.: The leaves that dance the wind in sprawl The waters of the waterfall The brew that steeps this tease of tea The phantom and the fantasy |
