POETRY CORNER, Open to All

[jdandns]

Here's a thread for your poems, new and existing, and others you have read and would like to share!
If posting a poem written by anyone other than yourself, you must follow it with the writer's name.


NOTES:
Obviously, use no language that would cause discipline here were the same words composed as prose. Further, if the subject matter of the poem can be considered "hot button" in any way, please use sufficient additional metaphors until as the intended meaning is rendered so oblique it cannot violate forum rules against discussing such matters.

AND:
Poems need not rhyme, but probably should.
No disparaging what's posted. They won't all be good.


FINALLY:
Please, no haiku.
