The Stars Have Had It With Me

The Stars Have Had It with Me Oh, No! Orion came here last night in a fury! And wow, he took me to task! I cannot repeat the words he said to me. Alas, not even is jest! But he warned me, in a saturnine  way, to grow rhapsodically! And to stop using he and stars in the constellation, so endlessly, poetically. Oh, inside, I was quite choleric! I tried in vain to explain, that stars and even butterflies, Are the bedrock of many poems. Alas, not any sympathy was I shown! At which point,Orion had it with me. And in a kaleidoscopic mantle,disappeared! With a shimmering gold dictionary and silvered thesaurus, Orion has left for me. There...In the moonshine ever so gleaming Under the arms of a loving evergreen tree. I will follow Orion's advice  Discover topics truly meaningful~ And put the word "stars" on ice! Using English words, I hope... That are truly lovely and purposeful. Panagiota Romios 4/26/2019 10::30am PST
