You were the missing piece of my rhyme
Thank God that you have arrived in time
Without you I would be locked here on the page
I’ve waited for you for what seemed an age
...
Oh! To have a poet’s mind –
That glides and flexes through the rhymes
where gentle words can say so much –
Like rainbows on an artist's brush
...
Dear Reader
You were the missing piece of my rhyme
Thank God that you have arrived in time
Without you I would be locked here on the page
I’ve waited for you for what seemed an age
For days I’ve felt like a Genie in a lamp
In a sort of literary concentration camp
All I could do was question why
Then suddenly you happened by
Well dear friend, let us off to exotic lands
With pyramids and peacock fans
I’ll sit you on cushions made from purple silk
Serve you hobgoblin cake and camel milk
Yes, through the windows of my rhyme
I can take you back through space and time
To Scottish Castles and Pixie bowers
Where we can roam for endless hours
We can travel along China’s great “Silk Road”
Or we conjure up Ratty, Mole and Mr Toad
I can rocket you up to the moon - if you agree
And I’ll still have you back in time for tea
The mind can do such wondrous things
It can fly us to heaven on angel wings
Yes, for you and I there is no limit
If I have your attention - for just a minute
But when your consciousness is gone
Then my whole world won’t last long
My trigger to your thoughts will disappear
And I could be abandoned - for a year!
Remember, me and my kind
Can bring you peace and love
Help convey a message to your God above
With my inducement your mind can fly
And things like loneliness just pass on by
So dear reader - please don’t go
It’s you that gives me life you know
Who knows when others will find this rhyme?
So please will you read me - one more time
I have thousands of poems listed on the internet how come you only list two?
I enjoy this type of poetry - it is meaningful
