Asking Alot

I want to sink into a poem Wrap the words around me like an over sized blue baby blanket or a snugglie A blanket Slip in deep to the hot bubbly cleansing and sweet smelling phrases A bath I want to dash through a verse Breathing heavy as I slice into the winner's tape A race Waving off the balcony the world rushes away beneath me as I go on my adventures A rail I want to sip on a rhyme Tasting the lemon and lime on my lips as the wine takes me on a trip past time A drink Hearing me think, but not caring because of ink is still wet and pink A dare I want to care with poetry Opening my arms to the human species A hug Closing my heart to the fear A healing What do you want?

What a rush poetry gives us, Autumn. Surely it is like a total cleansing of the inner self and the means to total healing. I believe this is what most of us want. Wonderfully written, Autumn! Love, Carolyn
