Jo Hayton Poet I do not know?

Five Minutes of Elation

With age comes acceptance
Happiness cannot squeeze itself
Inside the sadness of my head

Winter when its crisp
Tiny morcels of occurance
This will do for me instead

When I feel virtuous
A definite elation
Has surely begun

Shooting down
Incisions of sadness
Forcoming, delaying, outdone..

Embracing visions
Too many, a futile sensation
Natures own allowance that I breathe

Encapulates for me, my five minutes of elation..

I hope I'll get to know you more through your amazing verse! There's "soup mail" on this site.
