Baring It All

Halfway through the grave lines
Of a flowing sonnet
A cherry verse fastened to the rhyming boughs
Of mine rhythmic apricot, muse

Each rhyme held its own beauty,
As the stormy poet within--
Seized all, began ~ writing furiously 
Regarding, life, death and cantos of love…

Baring all or perhaps nothing at all
Loosing all or perhaps nothing at all…
