[stylist] To Robert and ShawnAfter a busy morning just sharing something fun

[KajunCutie926 at aol.com]

Thank you both.. and Robert if I knew the answer to that I'm not sure I'd  
be able to write again.  To me that is the magic of words.. they just come  
and sometimes they are a bit on the off-beat side.  Sometimes reflective,  
sometimes heartbreaking.   This one was inspired by a fierce debate on  
another poetry site. I felt asleep and woke in the middle of the night and wrote  
this.  I will take up for Words and if they leave, there will be silence  
within the pen.

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
