Complete First Poems Still Remembered Poem by Terence George Craddock

testing themes
statements
metaphors
sometimes
each word
words came
I desired
to achieve

a few poem
perfections
not a single
word out of place
not a single
word more or less

than needed
strangely
I started
writing
without
a learning curve
even first poems
a few wrote themselves

complete
first poems still
remembered
are most enduring
did I write them well
did I write them inspiring

did I write
a few complete
without even trying?

'Snowpowder', 'State Of 20th Century Man'
'Bubbling Brock', 'Fleeting Thought',
'Ode To The Poet', ''of reflections'',
'Visions From A Dream State',
'Beauty Revealed', 'Perspective Stand'
'The Secret Of The Grail, 'Etching In Glass',
'Not Today', 'The Garden Party'
'Tribute', 'Ad Astra' written in 1981,1982...

what thoughts what feelings what passions
invoked writing these poems thousands
to come in mind concept life explorings?
