am i the only one
that comes and goes
and leaves behind
terrible poetry,
on tippety toes ?

than light
more praise
than fight.

YOU ARE.
you are, apparently,
the only one with
reserves of rhyme,
concise, full of pith,
saying in so few words
what i struggle to
express on my notepad
but, no matter what i do
i can't get more than
doggerel and nonsense verse
out of my pen
as i sit here and curse.
reason enough, methinks,
justifiable cause,
to not post my poems, but
just come here and read yours.
I liked the other two I have read better.
That poem zigzackly is beautiful, and I totally agree.
Hi Rats
that's a whopper of a good poem, pretty spontaneous and crisp indeed -just one phrase the 'terrible poetry' smacks of a sense of modesty out of place here. Your poetry is good !
Cheers
Max
thank you raizel, max
and zigs, wow!!!
rats
no, you are not.
not the only one.
not for long; but for some
courage is longer in the coming
and patience, a curse
the sun brings, instead of light.
Hi Rats,
An empty blog,
with your pen running wild
is as unlikely as a volcanic burst
leaving a few leaves untouched
on some solitary tree
When you're absorbing the light
the lime will seep in
Cool cats will not fight
eternity will creep in
you certainly hog
this erstwhile blank blog
every reader mentally broke
may soon start to croak...
cheers
Max
you are NOT the one
who comes and goes
and leaves behind terrible poetry
You are, however,
the hog
that demands justice
for the coffee stain
and not
for the poor pen
that puts up
with your tantrums.
