This poem was inspired by Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU's poem, "Forget Not, Poets"
There is so much inspiration here, that every poet should gain when read and reflected upon...
Right away I thought of a "Virginal Poet's Society" and I am quite sure I will bring it to BLOOM! Thank you Andre~
My roots go beyond. . . into a continent land! and I imbibe in the pure wetness of clean dirt! In a thirst for that different taste, in crapulence my piths on the other side of the fence. . .
I’m raven new reservoirs and I’m overindulging! Living in my moments, without any preparation for the dry times. I drink. I drink, and drink, and drink some more!
. . . until my belly sounds liquid, and the sensations of it all make me laugh! I dig. . . digging, deeper and deeper all the while, quite aware of the bloom I have going on up above! You see, the deeper I claw into unknown territory the prettier and more unique my flower will be. Simple as that!
All this drinking has to relieve itself, somehow? In a poets’ indulgence, I call it . . . the Bloom! My filaments reach out for the warmth, and weather it be! . . . in the heat of my passions, or that forever sun beating down on my greenness it’s all in order!
. . . in an order that allows my souls’ photosynthesis to occur and I breathe using every little bit of the nutrients feeding off the new find in trackless inhalations. . . where emanation occurs which, by my way, is blooming new life, as we speak
Your flower as each blossoming poets, is unique and wonderful with it's own specaial nuance...I love to take the time to stick my nose into your wonderful bouquet...hmnnn that doesn't sound very gentlemanly like when I reread. LOL anyway great write Kimmy.
A wonderful write full of inspiration...I believe the more we delve deep into our thoughts, passions, fires, hearts, and minds...the better we understand our self as well as others and life in general...captivating indeed!
Blessings,
Joyce B.
Very impressive Kimmy. I will never ever pick another flower without first thinking about your poem! I do wanna smell your flower.
All the best from Texas, *Glen*

There is a lot of aliment for the soul and nourishment for the mind through the lines of "Smell My Flower!".
It honors me that my words inspired Your quills to fly to the garden of Helicon and collect this poetic flower.
In gratitude and admiration,
