DIVINE REMEDY
Poet in state so pitiful
Earthly vessel slowly decays
Artery walls display
Impasto graffiti
Masterpieces of overindulgence
Honey honey ah sugar sugar
Now poison in the veins
Stiff joints hamper scamper
Fatigue a constant bane
What can reverse
this steady decline?
Stem this deterioration?
Breath of life come enter in
Sweet wise and beautiful muse
With brilliant light each passage fill
Bring Spring to a Fall disposition
Make words inspired from pen to spill
View life with amplified vision

View life with amplified vision

This is a divine piece dear Gahddess (Bob?). I smiled with this line "Honey honey aw sugar sugar". You always write out of the box. I love your muse, and hope I can have one like her "View life with amplified vision" .
Beautifully written!

Thank you so much Jasmine! Yes, Bon is correct. I appreciate your kind words. I'm glad that line made you use your beautiful smile. I think you have a marvelous muse in Mother Nature. Cheers!

All it takes is a fine lover to approach divinity. Love this, Gahdess. That "sugar sugar" line reminds me a bubblegum pop tune from the '60s by the Archies. A little guilty pleasure in a superb new context.

You are spot-on Sir Crow...that line did come from the Archies. It just came to me as I was writing and has not left my noggin since. I am glad you like the piece. Cheers!

You capture the challenge ... agony ... of being a writer ... trying to poet the elusive poem ... bravo!

Thank you LDF! A muse is kind of ineffable and intimate but I tried my best to describe the gifts I receive.
