Michael Degenhardt Poet Pantoum

You Inspire

I cannot help but smile at the very thought of you
You create an image of loveliness that so inspires
For deep within this man rages a fire burning true
The very thought of you releases new desires

You create an image of loveliness that so inspires
Your face of beauty gives my mind words to write
The very thought of you releases new desires
As poetic fires burn from the flames you so ignite

Your face of beauty gives my mind words to write
So all come together then, neatly and with flow
As poetic fires burn from the flames you so ignite
Your beauty gives my poems light, eternal glow

So all come together then, neatly and with flow
For deep within this man rages a fire burning true
Your beauty gives my poems light, eternal glow
I cannot help but smile at the very thought of you

Robin L. Gass February 14, 2009 at 10:59 AM Micheal, this is totally awesome! I don't believe I've ever seen the very cool form before (I am a novice but I am learning). I I love the sentiment in this as well and how it developes. To my favs! I am going to study up on this form. Thank you for sharing this gem! Happy Valentines Day! By the way, I am in awe about the amount of work that you have posted. Wow! Love, Robin
