Forgot the Knots

Hi Joe, is this for Susan's contest..., stopping by to say good night~PD

Is there vanity by 'peruse', Joe? Or is it just spreading your poetic wings? Well Lebkuchenmann, I hope you acquire the shoes of Hermes and post more of your amazing writes!:) Best wishes, Love, Mikki

Joe a quick question for ya. In your new contest: are old haiku ok and can they be a series of haiku or do you expect just one?

the subtle union in the knot, used by sailors since time forgot, a bowler knot, says my dad says he, bowline thinks me all at sea, the no slip knot, tied horse, he got, and still gets tied by me. dinna choke the horse you see... "forget the knots" thanks Joe Maverick Don Johnson

Label the type of meter on the bottom of the verse Joe Light & Love [Not sure what this write means dear? each couplet seems like the beginning of its own verse?]

Thanks Joe I didn't know how much work I was setting myself up for LOL correcting 35 poems for assorted meter GAH! I only know 3 meters LOL [hope they pick those 3 /1 already didn't LOL] anyway it's all good I learn too! PS Joe dear YOU MUST have 10 syllables per line to be pentameter penta 5 x 2 iams per meter = 10 syllables see? [1 iam 1 IAM] see? [unstress STRESS] see? [ un LEASH] 2 syllables, 2 iambs, 1 foot of iambic meter

the interlude brings fortitude, denys the old frustration, but in the solid quiteatude, (new one) unleashes inspiration... on ya Joe M

Hey there Joe. I think I heard you are doing a contest? IF so, I'll have to check it out. Just trying to catch up with my friends here after being out of commission with my computer a few days!!

quirky scratchy kind of verse, to tickle you right out of the hearse, great little bloody verse, well done here Joe 4 trying.... BLOODY HAPPY NEW YEAR MATE!:)

I always enjoy reading your stuff Joe. You make us pay attention to what we are reading and you always have such a good humor about it. Love it. God Bless and Merry Christmas, JB :)

Very inspired, seeing as how vanity usually wins. I think. daver

deep stuff mate ....love it... good onya Joe

hhmmm I did not buy extra shoes but did peruse and came up with true inspiration is always versus verses of vanity. and when inky walls are blackly scrawled ... I can't see the words too well.... and if in error there is a making then whilst striving in searches collating there is still a creation ,Okay Joe that's all I got on it. brain starting to smoke a little now ..better stop. : )

Thought provoking piece Joe, but that is the norm when it comes to your gems, enjoyed it!! love Wilma

Interesting thoughts to ponder about. I like the title. Thank you for sharing your poem with us and for your kind words on mine. Karen

Hmmmm This is real food for thought my friend. Makes me think someone is having trouble linking their words together to make some kind of sense out of their thoughts. "So many thoughts, such a small mind?" Is that it. Whatever, I like this. God Bless, JB
