Swapping I swapped a skies aura’s view Took a trail of rainbows hue Saw the treasure of my mind Who could know that I was blind? I left the heaven of my day Walked the rainbow all the way Did not find a treasures gold Found a peacock cold and old The treasure was a mirrors view Of something worn and full of rue A view of misty vanity Reflections of insanity The eyes were hollow full of pain Compressions of a one-way lane The dance macabre danced a fife Of wasted time that was a life For I have played the game of pride And now became its loving bride.

I got so scared Sy when I got to this part.. "The treasure was a mirrors view Of something worn and full of rue A view of misty vanity Reflections of insanity" I thought you'd written a verse about me and early morning rising........ Relieved I went on to read that it was just another good poem by Sy Tabin and not telling the truth about Eric..... Thanks Eric |

Happy spring morning, Sir Tumbleweed! I do believe that you have ample reason to be as proud as a peacock ~ and one that is warm and with a spirit as young as the babe that you are! May you find a pot of gold and happiness at every rainbows end! ![]() Loves 'n hugs, EA |

I really enjoyed your imagery. The mood, well, I enjoyed it too but it left me with tens of questions. You can't know how much your writing is valued and enjoyed. Good morning to you. Sadie |
