It colors your five senses.
To write what's not there.

Seems Craig’s got a contest again;
I’m finding out with much chagrin
my stanzas in sapphic
are jammed up in traffic.
I’ll get there, but I don’t know when!

Thou Awen shines forth,
All three rays of vibrant gold,
Wisdom upon them.

Sapphic stanza
Over the dewy crown of mountains, I lay
among grasses beneath a jeweled sky
Illuminating the mist, tickling my face --
A first thrill in spring.

Sapphic stanza
'Tis in the silver moonlight
the ways of Fae come calling,
Behind shadows of the night
and sleep is gently falling,
where my dreams are blithe and bright
my soul finds you -- enthralling.

Toss me in prism
And throw away the key
I'm having a spasm
I'm down on one knee
Cheer Bear underwear
Marry me

A coalminer by trade Norman Cornish*
in his forties achieved his artistic wish
Like Lowry, at the end of his working day
locals&locality depicted in his own stylised way

No slugs
No shrugs
Kisses
Not near misses
Or dismisses
But real embraces
No traces
Of sad faces
No shoves
Just real hugs
With your loves

Children of a lesser God
not chosen by the elite
color codes as well as creed
not accepted by their God
Fie on dieties

What a silly nincompoop, hands free phony
Driving over everything in his pathway
His eyes fully occupied by the cute girl
Gingerly bouncing!

Sapphic stanza
Lady fair meandering verdant hillside
Tracing amber prints of a night that glimmers
With the vintage lace from a rosy springtime
Breathless her senses.

Sapphic stanza
A delectable dessert,
a delicious dream.
Fancy French fairy cakes...no!
Strawberry shortcake
with thick Cornish cream.
Melt in mouth.
Joy!
I am thankful for many things, my good health is not the least.

As you and I seek our thrill
upon the moon’s mystic strand,
whilst Merlin is sleeping still
awaiting all that is planned.
On Avalon’s highest hill
the dragon guardians stand,
Watching destiny fulfil
her magic across the land

Lovely lady down the lane
I remember her well
I was never to be the same
She took me by the hand
And pulled me to her breast
She turned this boy into a man

I came with flowers and love,
just to see my maiden fair,
with the silver moon above,
I could do nothing but stare.
Her eyes cast a magic spell
and held me at her leisure.
I knew then I'd walk through hell
to bring her heart its pleasure.

“…Forever, is a long rapid jump How?, just one second, sometimes!
As a mortgage home, the house of thousand rooms just gets paid on interest multiplies as the Rabbit”
