Easy Slip Away

It truly is quite deceiving
  the truthful lies we say
  as we are drawn into false believing.
Imagery and word flow
  can easily slip away
  lost in the stop go world we know.
Days are filled with guilty pleasures
  garden song and creature play
  things we often fail to treasure.
But the world in which we hurry
  is too often overlooked and gray
  longing for rhymed prose and poetry.
There it goes again
  forgotten, missed, slipping fast away
the simple, easy measured, poetic refrain.
