Nette Onclaud Poet Free verse

My Own Way

Along this season’s mid quarter-time,
I find myself wandering between 
The raw of night’s wanton  pleasure
And the sacredness from morn awakened:
Late evenings replay a dancing fire
when each hour blazes  thrilled adventures
daring  the  self to run with passion: jazz music
gyrating through city lanes, sauvignon kisses
 from love’s rendezvous, the late communion
with this artist's brush—an expressionistic glow!

Russell Sivey August 29, 2017 at 11:53 AM This is Russell's wife typing in for Russell. He told me to stop by and read to him your poem. He then commented, "Wow Nette, this is an incredible and fantastic write. You have masterfully crafted another creative and wondrous poem. I surely loved every syllable of your delightful piece, you have outdone yourself with this one. I am mending Nette after my accident. I hope to get better soon enough so I can get back on full time. So good to hear your work, great job." wow, Emma :)
