Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

A Purse With No Coins

A purse with no coins
     a sink with no drain
   Pants with no pockets
     flowers without rain

   Oceans without water 
     winding roads with no end
   A world custom-designed
     to cultivate friends

Michael Tor February 16, 2023 at 3:34 PM Brilliant thought my friend your muse is working today... Gershon Wolf February 16, 2023 at 7:28 PM My Muse is working even though it out all night partying. Muse must have drunk from the Fountain of Youth. ~ Jealous

Valsa George February 15, 2023 at 9:29 PM Gershon, your thoughts are flowing with great ease....! The feeling of aridity and futility powerfully conveyed through apt images! Gershon Wolf February 16, 2023 at 7:25 PM My thoughts are flowing. Good. Now gotta get my tired blood flowing! lol.

Shirley Hawkins February 14, 2023 at 3:27 AM Thank you, Gershon. I liked all of your poem, especially the last four lines. How to win friends and influence people came to mind! Gershon Wolf February 14, 2023 at 6:39 PM Haven't thought of ole Dale Carnegie for a while. His advice is still good even today.

Deb M February 13, 2023 at 11:12 PM I like this poem Gershon….flows beautifully! Debx Gershon Wolf February 14, 2023 at 6:41 PM Thank you for letting me know, Deb!

Elizabeth Feeley February 13, 2023 at 9:13 PM Gershon, I like your imagery. When you mention 'flowers without rain', I am transported back to the Arabian desert. Very dry, but still a few hardy plants managed to bloom. Gershon Wolf February 14, 2023 at 6:47 PM Hadn't thought of that. Thanks for the enlightenment, Elizabeth!
