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
.
