***My six-hundredth poem on AuthorsDen!*** "A spark before I lose the light / And silent slip into the night"
Spark
They said I was no one nowhere They forgot about answered prayer
But now it looks like I might be Able to write my poetry With skill at will experience Having made all the difference For the better by the letter The help of God some stubbornness And years of sweat: no more no less
I have to write it anyway But now it seems that judgment day Regarding poetry and me Might go a little better than Once thought for this mere misfit man
To laugh last really is the best Thank God and never mind the rest I seem to have "arrived" somewhere I think I might have gotten "there" I guess if you write thousands of Poems and give them all your love In the end it might turn out right
A spark before I lose the light And silent slip into the night
Wow- this is a 'Perfect' 600th Poem-ConGraTuLations Steve- and wonderfully said and shared my friend,- Thank you- AlwaYS! LiSTen to you! Love&Light,Sheee
You can no longer "slip silent into the night" now, Stevie. You have made too many connections, shared too much of your soul; I (and many others I'm quite sure)have shared too much of theirs. We are family. You are one of us; living and loved. Thank you, my brother. Love, peace, and (as you put it), solidarity.
