That - I liked too. (Reading it, reinforced my amazement in the depth and
scope of human creativity; like where did you get all those thoughts - to
come out in poetry.)

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
