I Wove You a Poem

I had a dream.
In the dream I wove you a poem.

I used the fiber of my character 
to create spools of silken thread.

Then I dyed them 
in the colors of my imagination.

I reinforced 
each and every single strand 
with the strength of my love.

Spun the spools  
from the intricacy 
of my spirit.

Enamored by your vision,
I pattern every part of me,
every memory,
into every filament of my fabric.

Finished
I initialed my woven piece.

M.Y.

Steven Medellin September 2, 2017 at 2:22 PM The imagery was so clear. Wow!

Richard Evans September 2, 2017 at 5:15 AM So visual. Each stanza is enhanced by the next and all linked by a thread. Beautiful.

Michael Vacek September 1, 2017 at 9:34 PM How bold would be the color of imagination...I liked that line. Strengthen with love..again. thank you for the great read.

Ralph Sergi September 1, 2017 at 6:51 PM hi Maurice: This ia a great poem that reads more like a personification and well done!

Andrea Dietrich October 19, 2014 at 7:08 PM haha, finally saw your reply to me. I never see replies unless I come back to a person's poem! So I came to tell YOU a joke. this is a Mary Jane joke: mary Jane is at the movies with her boyfriend and they are eating popcorn. She is holding the box of popcorn. Her boyfriend starts to put his hand down her blouse. But Mary Jane just laughs and laughs. She knows there is not any popcorn in there!! Maurice Yvonne October 19, 2014 at 7:29 PM HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Andrea Dietrich October 12, 2014 at 7:25 PM hahaha, I have to tell you something. AS I did the captcha thing, this face of an old guy in a red hat popped up at me above your name and for a moment I thought you had changed your avatar and that you were using a really bad picture. ahhahaa. Scared me for second! Maurice Yvonne October 13, 2014 at 7:17 AM There are no bad picture of me I always look great. Would you like a picture of me holding a newspaper with date...and wearing nothing else, just saing.

Andrea Dietrich October 12, 2014 at 7:23 PM wow, this one is really good, Maurice, and I will fave you back for this one. The only little part I was unsure of was the very last line. Are you saying "thus initial my woven piece" as a command to the person you are writing to? Or are you making a statement such as "thus, I have initialized my woven piece" For me your meaning is the second way but it's coming off like a command form. Maurice Yvonne October 13, 2014 at 7:20 AM I added the word "I" and kept it in the present tense I hope that helps. If you get a chance read the original "I wove you a poem uncut"

Andrea Dietrich October 12, 2014 at 7:20 PM Maurice, thanks for the fave and the encouraging comment on my recent sonnet, but look at the judge. He never gives me a high win. So I will be lucky if I make it on his list!! Even my Wisteria poem was very low in his last contest. Now let me read this oldie of yours that I have never seen!! Maurice Yvonne October 13, 2014 at 7:22 AM That is why I made my comment in case he looks at such things.

Susan Palli August 17, 2014 at 10:14 AM Very nice write!

Richard Lamoureux August 14, 2014 at 7:43 AM I prefer the uncut version although this is still very good.
