Miracle of miracles, he sends I'm reading 'fore tea set to me. As quick as thought it seems!
One of the first commenter’s to my work (not work really..hush! Don't tell!)
as i see it kind they were,
far from silly, vacuous words,
indeed of praise and ringing bells.
Far from domed thinning mantle mine, (Brain I incumbent share)
Ahktamova or Pasternak's Russian crown ever now but distant shine of distant age,
(and that's okay thru 50 years, umbrage dwindled; donning wisdom am I of the sage),
But oh! my thirties, how I raged, convinced (SO SURE!) my name be seen on every page...
such foolishness, oh vilest age, trapped in tempered ego's cage,
But reading here at times, a creeping smile slips past frown...
the joy (my marrow sings!) of knowing when a poem is RIGHT,
correct...prescient and speaks to multitudes....
ah, the blessings...
but I digress!
I'm here right now to thank not RR,
having done,
but of YOU, all the rest
that keep me posting, making friends...
this site is manifest, swimming in good will, yet
gulping addiction has to me become...literary crack- no smoke yet stronger thrill;
Nessa, Softerware, Tim, and more,.
kudos shared; I pray you write- critique of praise or critics skewer,
either great as better I for the write, no words here spoke truer.
