Tonight

  Perused so many poems
     Plunged into a few 

  So much talent distilled
     into lines aching 
       to be discovered

Some poetic thoughts are like ponds, some are rivers and some are seas or oceans. When readers find the oceans they won't come back from the beach of the oceans.

The competition just keeps on growing Gershon. I guess that is good for poetry.

You are quite right, Gershon. We peruse through poems. But when plunged deep, we find that gems are hidden here and there. Some, like "wild flowers are fated to blush unseen and waste their fragrance in the desert air.' They rarely come into prominence.
