Vanities of Vanities

Fine 
words
           it's
           true
melodious
metrical
                  metaphors
                  mingle
in
alliteration
as
                 cadence
                  cajoles
with
verse
of
fine    
verbs
               and
               adjectives
cojoin
                to  rhyme
in the
ear
              drawing
              the reader
near
and yet..
               say
               nothing
I
fear

I like this, Brian! I love the alliteration and my favorite line is "with verse of fine verbs and adjectives" You have a wonderful way with words. Love, KIm

It's ok Brian sometimes folks just need to be stopped on the outside chance they might hear something if they listened! Light & Love
