[stylist] After a busy morning just sharing something fun

[KajunCutie926 at aol.com]

By 9:15 this morning I had already been  to the insurance office, the bank, 
Wal Mart, and Murphy's... just wanted to  share something fun and clear my 
head.  Now comes the repairs to the house  and as much as I want it all 
fixed I am so not looking forward to this at  all.  
Have a great day everyone and I hope you  enjoy this bit of fun. Myrna
 
Poetry's... ummm...  'Best'?

Amid a celebration of poetry's 'best',
Said to honor  those of significance,
Words chose to mill among the invited guests
And  was stunned by their perceived importance..

Sirs Ink and Pen were caught  in fierce debate
Of the merits each brought to poetry,
While Paper mused  at its own worthiness
And Muse papered the room with opinions.
As Pathos  groaned and Passion moaned, 
Prose and Rhyme argued, each  declaring
Themselves Masters of the poetic rules.
Words overheard bits and  snatches...

'A poem sublime is defined by rhyme'
'All should be free  in poetry!'

Meter heard too but merely smiled, 
Danced on iambic feet  and tiptoed
Away into a sonnet's dream.

And so it was that after a  toast
Of Imagery's wine, where each guest
Boasted, declared their own  importance,
Ignoring the power of Words altogether,
That Words bid them  all a sweet adieu
And with a mischievous wink
Named Silence as Master of  Ceremonies
