Ripened syllables
fondle that emotion-
richly fold
into puddled muse
draping themselves across a smile;
It's a world of difference
when finally-
in poem's recital,
the cantor's mouth
honey-drips languid and slow
on cold and saddened days,
and soothes a needful
heart that
profusely bled
just seconds before.

Hood-Winked!
I find this a very enigmatic and intriguing piece, it has a wonderful flow...It is sweet to the taste of every word upon my lips as I recite it, and smoothly swallowed, bringing a sense of warmth and joy...
Overall impact on me:...entertaining, engaging, dramatic, nicely laid out and a delicious read

So beautifully worded. I am truly impressed. I don't know how many times I've needed an encouraging word and have come to this site and read some "puddled muse" rich with "honey dripped words" and got a lift. Poetry is a great remedy for a hurting heart.
You are so very gifted, it's a pleasure to read your works~vj -

Each single word and verse in this breath eloquence at its best. I read this first yesterday and tried to wrap my thoughts around just how perfect this was. Needless to say, I still couldn't do that yesterday (or I would have left this comment sooner.)
Today, I'm no less inspired by the imagery and affection that hint through regarding the art of capturing your words. I try so hard not to be speechless when I read such things - but you certainly don't make that easy!

Very nice Cookie beautifuly written, with the need to bring a touch of difference and flavor to ones thoughts and heart. Nicely done although all of its of course lovely your words here: drips its warm languid honey on cold and saddened days, and soothe a needful heart that profusely bled are the most heartfelt and touching Cookie. I may never become the writer you are. However I did spend over six hours last night and into the morning edited nine of my collections through word perfect. Lovely writing Cookie with meaning!
