Oral intricacies

I mouth each new letter into life

throwing out words and thoughts

precious seeds of literary passion

rooted in primal equations
 

They dance in shadowed patterns

growing from the composted

remains of fiction and biography

touching me on an omnipotent plain
 

Smell the verbs and taste the nouns

reveling in the rhythmic symmetry

frolic among the weeded extensions

breathing from each different blossom
 

Living in the prefix and suffix of it all

enthralledd by the deepest of meanings

each definition a conceptual bliss

in rapture of the profound conclusion…..

One of the poets that stretchs and uses language use

You are always writing something different and always using correct words and spelling This I enjoy as the poem itself is then effortless to read I enjoy writing and the words love reading at the meetings but I am still quite lax at spelling a fun poem to read also Julie Your freind Esker~

My dear friend Esker, its

My dear friend Esker, its been so long! I am thrilled you enjoyed this. And it was very sweet of you to notice I try to write differantly everytime. If it is not a challenge and fun, then why bother. I could sit and mill out some stuff, but I doubt I would be very happy with it. Ok, I would like it, cause I like my own stuff {every poet should, or why bother}, but I find I like it best when I am pushing my own boundries, learnign new stuff. I do try to use the correct usages and such, but only because I love the sturcture of words the way I do, does it seem so smooth, and it not always so, LOL! Next maybe I will go with a mish mash of words not so clear maybe! Oh I can see it now, it will be great! Oh I could make it dark........SORRY! Just wandering the weeded extensions and breathing from each blossom and bloom See you have inspired me as usual Esker! Julie D.D.

Wow Julie

I can't pretend to understand about nouns, verbs etc, but boy I wish I did. How much easier it would be for me to write like this. Superb write Julie. PS. I’m often told it’s not too late to learn, but my wee brain is a little shrunken and refuses to expand, ha, ha, ha. Xena

I have no idea where my

I have no idea where my vocabulary started Rosina, I read verousiously as a child. But I actualy have very little knowledge of structure. I seek more everyday! Vocabulary is not the same as intimate knowledge of english. I am just a freak happy to find a way to express myself. I love words, definitions, flow, meaning, ie poetry and I think I got that across in the poem, LOL. As for my spelling. Jeesh, that requires alot of work and I make many mistakes still. But I have stopped using spell check on comments, and have less and less corrections daily! Of coarse I put every poem through it before posting to save my friends the trouble. Thanks for liking this poem Rosina. I think your work has tons of great words and meaning, don't be so hard on yourself. I see how much you put in all the time! Julie D.D.

Never knew grammar could be so beautiful DD:-

Ann of Norway Never knew grammar could be so beautiful DD. Julie I should have had you as my teacher as spewing out that dreaded complicated thing called grammar and all that STUFF, you make it seem to have colour in it after all. Yes you should have been the teacher at my early schools(7) and instilled in me a love of it- I'm blowed if I want to learn all the connotations of it now, it seems so terribly boring like hard work, memorising these laws and yet if you know them you have the world of language at your fingertips, like Joe! Ah well, I plead ignorance of much of it, it has seeped into me like the breezes of nature whispering in the trees the wisdom of words too. "rooted in a primal equations "......do you need A here? "breathing from each different blossoms".....do you need the S on blossom? "rolling amongst the deepest of meanings".....I think a simpler word here word suffice,AMONGST! Love to you from Ann.

Oh you have me blushing and

Oh you have me blushing and I am not so good at taking compliments Ann. My grammer is not natural, and much to be desired. I did not attend college and thought Grammer a waste of time. Little did I know at 18 what poetry could do for me. What I do know, its not formal. I know words, the feeling meaning. I have read thousands of books and hundreds of authors who have given me a wonderful feel for how they should flow together. I try my best to bring that out. But I have horrible grammer, lol. But loving words, and knowing grammer... well that is two seperate things. However that you liked and thought that so of this poem, my wonderful teacher, is the highest of compliments! Which is why I am blushing! Thank you so much, I had alot of fun writing this one. And I find emense enjoyment that it was communicated to my reader! Julie D.D.
