A Poets Table

A brain that seems to analyze it all... Confussed with thoughts that soon free fall... When I shake my head I'm not saying no... It's just a nod that can't find it's go... I'm trying a new fresh start where I can walk... A table set for poets who understand my talk... Where just my eyes can tell you I'm sad... And a small hand gesture can tell you I'm not so bad... In this new playground the pen is a sword and the paper a shield... Poems become conversations that will soon cover our fields... A fresh start where fashion is written in forms... And caring and love can never be torn... by Michael J Falotico for "Cobwebs & Dust" contest I chose (c) a fresh start..

Well Michael, I hope the table's not to full for me... Even if that be... a chair I pull to share in creativity. No need for sword or shield... no enemies exist in our Soup field. With our team so varied and vast... an outcast certainly wouldn't last... Love it and great luck Michael.
