The Less of More The more I sew the less I know Each particle of different snow That shows a different shape each worth The moment of its birth on earth I look within extremes of shade And follow close each weave of fade Make a note each come and go To add to that of which I know The library that I prepare Has bent the scale of my aware On one side filling bit by bit The other with the grit of wit It is an ever changing scale That’s grown much larger than a whale And though it sticks inside my craw I’ve little belly for much more For I’m swallowed in its bend and My candle splitters nears its end |

Morning hugs to you, Mr. T. "It is an ever changing scale That’s grown much larger than a whale" "For I’m swallowed in its bend and My candle splitters nears its end" ~ Hmm. Gives me pause to ponder your wonder. But never fear! Earth Angel's here! EA |

The more I sew the less I know Each particle of different snow That shows a different shape each worth The moment of its birth on earth Ain't that the truth?! Wise words to ponder this morning Seymour Thankyou for this. hugs, Chris Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. |

yes, ain't that the truth, is to what I thought while reading the first line... Your poetry is always like a first morning lesson from a robin's song... Thank you dear man, for your great wise words. Hugs... |

Seymour~ The more I see of YOU ... the less I think that there is any other who causes me more ponder~ 'The library that I prepare Has bent the scale of my aware' My 'aware' tells me that I have prepared a library of you~ And it is ALL GOOD ! *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*No matter what I search for ... |

It seems I'm the only one to read late at night so as I lay me down to sleep it pays to know ... we're all the same. Yes, I can relate fully to your poem. Good words! Thanks! |
