Pinch Me Poke Me

Pinch me, poke me
I still dream 
Poets rattle
Every ream

Words don't fail me
As I fall
I want to capture 
Love, is all

Blank page
Staring
At the start
Composition of the heart 

Blues and blacks 
They flutter by
Angel's wings
Ooh.. butterfly

Nighttime thoughts
Longing morns
Aching words 
Birdsong dawns

They all inspire 
A bit, it's true
But in my dreams
My dear, it's you

I like the terrific ending to your poem. It ends on a high note. There's lots of meaning in the short stanzas.

Darling Hilda - I think you may be my biggest (perhaps only..) fan. I do appreciate you visiting with your words of encouragement to my little odes. Best Cindy :) x
