Maybe Just Me

Maybe just me, my
perspective – but as 
a word-acrobat, I feel
far less
affective....

Preferring more 
a loosely worded chat – 
for simple gratification; 
as opposed to strictly
legal~proclamation! 

So, straight forward,  
not in form will I reside...

unless, that form
a less formidable stride – 

come with me, let's stroll 
sharing blossoms and leafy trees; 
in the living, forgiving balmy breeze– 

hard winter forms
will soon come

and my poetry
will also freeze – then written,
near hearth, by cozy fire

absent my 
preferred 
butterfly flier....

Hello Joe DiMino, Sometimes it is hard to find the first word to begin a poem. Given time the words will come. The more words will follow. Enjoy your day my friend.

Ain't that the truth! Just like the first, wobbly baby-step. Thank you, Darlene. Have a beautiful day!
