Wordsmiths Worst Nightmare

Wordsmith's worst nightmare

fortunately thwarted courtesy 
mine tall tale telling flair.

Mine irretrievable brilliant masterpiece...
all for naught after mental cogs and wheels
I did apply creative juice metaphorical grease
regarding tour de force pièce de résistance writing
forever lost to the annals of human history.

So much for escaping to paradise island
(Garden of Eden) and experiencing zen
Impossible mission to earn untold

Premium MemberThe Wordsmiths

The word smiths are the poets and the writers.
Sometimes they make your days even brighter.
All because they can make your daily loads seem lighter.

Yes the word smiths can either make you laugh, and smile.
They can even succeed in making you cry.
Causing salty tear drops to freely flow from your
sorrow laden eyes.

They can make your problems

Premium MemberWhen I Go Out To Speak

When I go out to speak,
I mean to be heard,
giving voice to the spoken word.
I am one of many,
one of the chosen few,
of a distinguished crew.
Poets who answered the call,
Wordsmiths, Storytellers
Versifiers, master mighty mouth
Manipulators and speakers of the truth.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Young and old alike.
Tonight, those of us 
who are not wrapped too tight.
Can only hope

Premium MemberWord Players and Wordsmiths

Grandiose words above my head
If I’m in the mood for them I will look them up
If I am not, I will pass over this missive quickly.
Down to earth easy words appreciated.
Heartfelt words endear themselves to me, giving me joy.
Sad sorrowful words, reduce my heart to ashes.
Poets who understand words captivate and enthrall me.
Spin me on

Premium MemberWordsmiths In the Woods

~Once upon a rhyme, many years ago~
a charm of wordsmiths gathered on an emerald mountain 
took dreamy strolls on piney paths along its golden crown
dipped their wits and winsome in a pastel painted lake
while sun and shadow played a game of time charades.
     The moon unchained a spray of applauding stars
from

Wordsmith

ignore other poets  read many good poems
procrastinate, delay  expedite, keep on track

Wordsmiths

Words reside alone in time and space;
Only sentient minds their roots trace.
Etymologists bring accents, forms to the surface;
Lexicographers establish a chronological base.
In dark, library basements, archivists file in database;
In academic institutes, linguists their value appraise.
Calligraphers, Engravers with artistic touch glaze.

Phrases the syntactical bridge brace,
and cultured interlocutor platforms grace.
Idioms the colloquial strains do lace;
Sages their poignant
