Notes About The Poem

A Glutton For Your Poetry

I'm a glutton for your poetry
I feast on every line
Indulging my deep desire
for rhyming treats so fine

I'm a glutton for your poetry
control is not in sight
consuming every crumb
I sate my appetite

I'm a glutton for your poetry
Ravenous to have my fill
line after line devoured
licking my lips at the thrill

I'm a glutton for your poetry
with you there's no restraint 
let my edacity rule
Please feed me without constraint

I'm a glutton for your poetry!

If this is written about any specific poet then he/she must be a worthy word smith indeed to deserve such fulsome praise.

Feel free to nudge your way to the trough, Eileen and join the rest of us....gluttony of this sort is not a sin; just be sure to join in the chorus of appreciative belched comments from time to time and allow us space enough to eat/regurgitate your own offerings.....(terribly nauseating images, but well-intentioned!)

What an interesting post, Leo. Belching an regurgitating....hmmmmmmm. :) You make me smile. I'm a woman given to extremes. Intensity rules. That goes through all aspects of my life....including poetry. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
