Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Once Upon a Poem

    Once upon a poem
      she soundly slept

    Moonlit waters flowing
      Sirius glowing...   

    Rooster chimed in
      unwelcome intruder

    Daylight summoned
      ~ the poem eludes her

Hilda Greenhough March 6, 2025 at 2:04 PM Great novels also buried forever. I wonder where those poems end up. Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:35 PM Great question, Hilda. And are the pillows gonna be alright? lol. :) gw

Jerry Brotherton March 6, 2025 at 1:21 PM What an amazing book it would be if we could write down all those poems left in dreamland. Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:36 PM Gotta 'drain the air' and collect some samples!

Kim Rodrigues March 6, 2025 at 12:57 PM I love this. Can even signify a poem you are holding onto, in your head, until you get home, but it falls flat.

Paula Goldsmith March 6, 2025 at 10:16 AM A wonderful write. We never know where or when a poem will come to us. Have a great and blessed day writing away.................... Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:44 PM I agree, Pa---- oops, a poem jest came to me. Gotta fly. lol. ~ Unev R. Noe

Oliver Mckeithan March 6, 2025 at 9:23 AM Too bad. She probably would have written a great poem. Good one Gershon Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:46 PM So many poems 'lost' forever, eh? ~ Great Thoughts

Bj Legros Kelley March 6, 2025 at 4:03 AM Oh, isn't that the truth Gershon! She needs to sleep with a notepad and pen at her elbow and scrawl it in the dark, I did that for a while, lol! Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:51 PM I always mean to do that too, Bj. Then I do and am too lazy to pick up the pen anyway. lol.

Michael Tor March 6, 2025 at 12:50 AM Sounds like my typical day Gershon... Gershon Wolf March 6, 2025 at 8:52 PM So, Michael: I hadn't realized that your typical 'day' is at night. Insigh D Oat
