Quixotism

"Freedom of thought and not limiting your imagination, it's not pragmatism but it doesn't mean it won't work!" Quote by poet Quick as a flash the ideas flood in Unrealistic?! Perhaps it's slightly on a whim Idealistic - go big or go home Xenial when all hospitality is shown Oh I love to let loose, let's go go go There's nothing to plan, go with the flow Interpretative stance on rules that apply to me Sidle in with confidence, it's the way to be Maybe it'll work, faith is the key

New word for me. But then again, there are ample examples to be found of people chasing windmills ... ;) Bending the rules? Poets should never be shackled by rules - unless a contest is prohibitive like a straight jacket.

Haha the rules I break are very tame ones - I'm very law abiding and compliant, I just don't like being inconvenienced by rules if it's unnecessary

Quixotism! that word is tailor made for you Dilly, Interpretative stance on rules that apply to me) only a free spirit could write that line, A mighty fine acrostic, like Jan below, I also have faith this one will place, cheers David

Ha! I was going to say in my comment! I bend the rules, you take an interpretive stance on them, yes it’s the same thing really, but will garner different results, depending on the approach, well said

I have my moments David and I do love the rules bending just because I've asked nicely - who doesn't?!
