Poetry Procure

Your ink injected into my soul

    traced a straight line to my heart

 Intoxicating mind trances

        enlightened within balladry,

                    musings heady high 

           

   Breathing in a whirlwind fire

                 heated to the core

       inhaling daydream's verse

   This addiction has no boundaries

             there is no cure for poetry

[Mark]

It's good to get a little glimpse into another person through their writing. I think it's very human to seek commonality, we find validation when we find another mind like our own in some way.

Words, funny how an ethereal concept can be real enough to cause emotion.

Love your review Mark, thanks so much my friend....

[Leslie Philibert]

I am probably a bad reviwer, but at the risk of repeating myself, I really admire the way Frieda breaks up
the phrases, other poets should follow this !

[Frieda P]

Au contraire Leslie, I love your reviews, thanks so much!

[Dana Alsamsam]

that second stanza is absolutely lovely in its language and the way it rolls off the tongue! there is most definitely no cure for the ups and downs of the sickness and beautiful blessing that is poetry. i must say i am so happy that you and i and many others among us here have been infected with it. you captured the sentiment well in this piece.

[Frieda P]

Most definitely Dana, what we do without poetry, thanks muchly....

[Tom]

It's pleasingly addictive and the side effects are positively charming!

Well scribed once more !

[Frieda P]

Charming, I concur, thanks for your visit & review Tom!

[SteveB]

There is no cure and for that I am pleased.
Very nicely penned with a strong sense of style.

[Frieda P]

Thanks muchly Steve....

Ha... There's no cure for Reds krakens either. Too bad I can't write one to save my life...;-p

Yes writing is addictive..guess that's why we are all crazy. ;-)

[Frieda P]

Ha, is that why? Thanks Red ;-)

Poetry fills many needs. It allows us our creativity and once we start it's hard to stop. You capture this within your beautiful words.

[Frieda P]

Thanks blue, what would we do without poetry?....

[icelandicblue]

That is one powerful question...

[Traci]

Having only started writing poetry recently I can contest to how addicting it has become. I only wish the words would come at a much more convenient time.

Your poetry is always spoken so freely from the heart and soul, especially when writing about your dear sister. Thank you for always sharing your personal thoughts, my friend.

[Frieda P]

Wow, Traci I would have never known....thanks so much my friend jazzed you enjoyed.

[Traci]

Yes Frieda began writing poetry in March.....always a pleasure to read your work!!

[Frieda P]

You have a real flair for it Traci, naturally talented indeed!

[Traci]

Awww thanks so much.

[Angi]

There is no cure, Frieda! None at all. The words swirl when I have other things I need to do. The words swirl when I need to sleep. When I sit down to write them, they come to a dead stop. I do believe my words are effing with me these days. Ha! Nicely done. Angi~

[Frieda P]

Ha Angi, aren't they always effing with us? Thanks muchly....
