one poem
one poem
that'll kill me
one poem
that'll bleed me dry
leaving not
even a drop
of either red
or blue
one poem
that'll douse
this fire
one poem
that'll quench
this thirst
forever
one poem
i know you're there
yet somehow
elusive you remain
one poem
that'll melt
this mound of clay
one poem
that'll leave
all the demons slayed
one poem
your pursuit
i know
not in vain
one poem
this desert's
missing rain

Joyful & honoring
yet again
is your visit dear AH!
i believe, though self being neither poet nor artist of any kind, that this is the feeling shared by those who deal in and with art. No surprises there, to know a poet, musician and artist of your caliber feeling that.
welcome once again AH!

I do believe that all Poet's has a need for that one poem that strikes a chord in others... or sometimes within self. That one special piece that outstands the rest, that one piece, that creates an inner freedom... That one piece that can stir within other peace. :) Well, you know what I mean, since you just wrote about it. Excellent piece, Poet.

Welcome Harry!
yes, that very elusive pot of words indeed. I know it's not far away, always felt that but that slippery beast always manages to elude.
honored and humbled
at the same time
dear friend.
much gratitude.

That one poem, that cures all that ails,
and brings final inner peace.
Elusive, perhaps even nonexistent.
But if so, when found, and poured
forth from our deepest depths, then
what?
Would a poet's work be done?
Could we find anything left
that burned as fierce, that
haunted our soul enough to
attack a different set of demons?
I wonder, would we be richer
or poorer for it?
Would the devil's wish be
to lead us to it, or keep us from it?
I love a poem that effects, such as this one.
Nice work, turning thoughts into a poem, my friend.

Welcome
is the Dear Friend
The Poet, The Wise One!
wisdom in every line here.
Yes,
that one poem
my Friend!
well..the answer
to that 'Then what?" lay
in the first stanza itself
the ultimate satisfaction
the writer's job
is done
and
'its time'!
perhaps as a writer
and/or it could also be
simply 'The end'.
i too wonder the same about would we be richer
or poorer
but
feelings, ahh... the feelings/the emotions
they don't give a rats' about wisdom
do they?
I believe the devil
will do his best
to keep us
from it
for he enjoys nothing
better
than the fruitless pursuit
the suffering
the quest.
again
my wise Friend.
well spotted, my thoughts
in words.
Calling them bunch a poem,
i wouldn't dare but won't judge
my friends' opinion.
Appreciation
immense.
for
everything!
