Ode To the Poet

Oh, the poet’s magic prancing pen, sculpting words from breast within. He carefully chooses phrases of his liking, selecting only what he finds striking. He is mindful-delicate to no end, realizing tastefulness is his friend. Writing tirelessly not breaking a sweat, tantalizing senses with diffused couplet. Praise be to him who has patience to, sit in endless ponder the way poets do. Copyright © 2008 By Caryl S. Muzzey

Beautiful tribute to our insanity ... LOL ... great writing here, Caryl. I think you mean to say "phrase" in the second stanza instead of phase ...
