Sweeping The reaper does not sweep for me He stands beneath the Eden tree Coring apples making sauce Keeping count of all the loss Feeding change the tunes of time Melting down the strange of grime Cycling the wheat in sweep Filling the abyss with reap He does not stay he does not stop He does not weigh the weight of crop But cuts the thistle with the rose And never ever does he doze It is a job I would not care Forever is too long a share I’d rather be a flowers bloom Then be the bristle of the broom So think a second thought of grace And be you happy with your place. |

The reaper does not sweep for me He stands beneath the Eden tree Coring apples making sauce Keeping count of all the loss ============================ Your poetic mind is more brilliant than a mere moth could define. Those lines above are all the proof I need. Randy says forget the sauce...we'll bake you an apple pie. *L* *ww* ... and it's you ... you ... you ... you ... |

He does not stay he does not stop He does not weigh the weight of crop But cuts the thistle with the rose And never ever does he doze He can't, he's working overtime...smile Whata write/right as always, your poems are not only intellectual but filled with all kinds of thoughts rolling off that busy muse of yours. Splendid! Good good morning to ya |
