This Life I play in rote this reed and fife The essence of the deeds of life I add my cup of leach and grime And lay my bones to bleach in time The irritant has formed a pearl Within the time of twirl and swirl A piece of opulence a seed A mellow note upon a reed A drop within the living sea One common change that came to be A flux within the drifting foam A tumble weed that came to roam The consciousness has brought a sigh And nailed me to a cross of why This instant in infinite Seems to me a fantasy To close to me the smell of new I cannot see the overview |

Greetings, Sir Tumbleweed! "I cannot see the overview" ~ I beg to differ, O' Wise One! Your poetry perfectly illustrates your macrocosmic (as well as the microcosmic) view of life. Your eyes not only see, but they SEE! ![]() Loves 'n hugs, EA |

Seymour~ 'The irritant has formed a pearl Within the time of twirl and swirl A piece of opulence a seed A mellow note upon a reed' And if ANYONE could cultivate a pearl it would be YOU ! *Huglets* ![]() ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

If only I could turn my irritants into pearls... at least there'd be some value for all the aggravation? *G* But... I can always find value in your words, my friend... Beautiful write!! |
