They slowly float All forms and size A sheep, a boat Wolf in disguise They slowly float Mystic and wise Horse without throat I swat at flies I use a note Containing lies And take an oath To cut the ties To slowly float To shrink in size Hide in my coat Stifle all cries They slowly float, A sheep, a boat My tattered coat Vulnerable throat Wolf in disguise Mystic and wise I cut all ties Today I'll rise *** March 15, 2017 Copyright © Darren White

Oh Darren, so young and yet so wise, fragile and strong your rise! Your magical poetry floats to us, free of time and space. I'm placing this poem in my favorites:) 7 Where did you find that incredible picture that accompanies your poem and what is it called? Amitiés

Thank you so much, also for the Fav and the 7 :) The picture I found while searching for Pareidolia (What-Is-Pareidolia-or-Why-Do-We-See-Animals-and-Faces-in-the-Clouds) and it's one of the images that comes up. I immediately liked it.

Wow Darren. Hello. I bow to your talent. This is beyond. And no, I'm not talking the attached image. I am simply and solely speaking of your expressive and motivational words. The ending line is immeasurable. This entry is so well executed in every area and aspect. An entry in my opinion to be read out loud slowly yet with emphasis. You rock Darren.

Lisa, I am humbled by this wonderful comment! Like you I love repetition, it's why I love pantoums, villanelles and terzanelles. It enhances emotions in a poem in such an incredible way. Thank you Lisa, you rock too :)
