Question: How many poems have you started reading and stopped, never to finish!?
I just want you to be there
because I know you have never been!.
We can go anywhere we want
as long as the hinges have been well oiled
and you don't mind floating!.
We can turn the rain to glory if we want to,
maybe I'll throw in some thunder
for the visceral bits
just as long as you don't leave me there
hanging on line 12
with a closed-mouth grin
as you knot yourself on the dead oak's arm
in the dull sheen of a green pasture!.
It is dark on the edge of these woods
sit down
rest
park your eyes on the dancing Lily
to the North and pull the forest air
into your body!.
Let it go now
this place can get cold and the air
in there
can choke your soul but
isn't it nice
that we don't have to
stay!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
