It’s been a while

Muse of Calliope

Its been a while since i have regularly posted

My views have been quite perilously demoted

I never stopped writing poems

But they were just not meant to be promoted

 

Some i wrote for family

Some i wrote for friends

Sometimes Precious memories

Can only be shared with kin.

 

I still love this community

And all the talented poets therein

So I’ll make some precious memories

That i can share with friends

 

Some poems

I want to keep

in a box

on a shelf

for safekeeping

 

Some poems

I want to sweep

under a rock

in a well

safe from seeing

 

Some poems I want to shout out into the air

Some poems i want to hold close with care

 

But all of them,

Like a poet friend soren once said,

Are such precious gems,

Like poetic children so sacred.

    Indeed they are Rose and well stated in most poetic rhyme. Some of our private lives we share hidden in the skin of our poetic children and although to others they may appear ugly to the parent there is always that love that distorts their vision. That should always be respected. Loved your poem
