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 |

"The consciousness has brought a sigh And nailed me to a cross of why" I love the flow. |

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*~ |

Lady You always brighten my day. Earth Angel It even reads like it's coming from an angel. Marge, It only takes a little irritation. LOL |

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!! |
