Visiting with blind rhyming moles
is very educational
but never confrontational
for words do not live in their souls.

Lynne

While in the ground digging deep holes
I can observe nature’s wonders
and hope to make fewer blunders
as I visit with word blind moles.

Just finding the words is profound
and fitting them in a jigsaw
is like finding needles in straw
while digging deep holes in the ground.

Intent is not better than sound
when a quatrain is being solved
with so many constraints involved
just finding the words is profound.

Lynne

All can know what the poet meant
when rhyme and some reason combine
however when the poem’s mine
sound is better than my intent.

Lynne

When it’s sublime the real content
means its sound and sounds very good
with no chance it’s misunderstood
all can know what the poet meant.

Lynne

Thoughts are better left un-pursued
when I find tears and beer and wine
mixed in with sad, sad drops of whine
for bad poetry will ensue.

Lynne

Words that still leave you confused do
not read as well on white paper
as they sound to the word shaper
and are better left un-pursued.

Lynne

Once you read their tries and refused
to find suitable words of praise
for the endless days in their maze
of words that still leave you confused.
