We dance our minds across a sea of eggs

Making a colour of yellow and white

we always feel we know how

and the audience waits

Bringing their own plates

To bang a spoon

And a plate

As we present an image

That matters

Too feed

The life

We care for

In our emotions

...and if we have to put on such an "act" for others....we usually wind up with egg on our faces!! Enjoyed. Chris

Blue it again

It was a wish that the United Nations was not a political acheivement

and that you could believe the European Union

Was more than

Both dancing with the Eagles

while a sacrifice pays

for a poltiician on re-appointment and those milking it

Sorry Guys

I care

Dave

Dave, with either interpretation, this was a grand write.  That's the thing about poetry, even the masters we've studied require interpretation and sometimes we're right and sometimes we're wrong.  Only the poet usually knows for sure with the great stuff, so don't feel bad.   ....jo
