A Musing Tell

She slips into my mind a whispered thought
about an untold tale or sentiment
I must reveal. No matter how it’s wrought,
conception must occur. Though transient,

it stays so I may grasp a truth which lies
like fecund seed or sprout in fallow field
which yearns for life. Its future or demise
may be a revelation yet revealed.

Dependent on a mood or time’s constraint,
that new insight is mulled. Fruition’s taste
upon the tongue is savored; flavor’s faint
but spice from each embellishment will haste

a dish filled with delight for all to see.
The picture of a thought she gave to me.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Hi again Sylvia,

Yes, the ranks are becoming thin but being an old "stick-in-the-mud" I don't do facebook, twitter, et. al.!

The poem is in straight IP: -/-/-/-/-/. I know that due to differences in language, pronunciations, ethnic backgrounds,
and too many other variables to mention, there are going to be bumps in everything written except for possibly prose
and free verse. I do enjoy giving pleasure to those who read my offerings and am happy to explain anything but
colloquial variables and other linguistic anomalies that constantly crop up when reading. Sorry!!!

Try reading those stumbling points with the old "ta-Dah, ta-Dah, ta-Dah.....". Sing-song, I know but I try to make the
song as interesting as possible.

Thank you very much for your visit. I thought I'd thrown this out into wind to fly away to Neverland.

I'm glad to read that things are settling down for you and that you are getting help with your husband

Prayers and Best Wishes going your way.

Larry
