One Of A Kind

One Of A Kind

I clear my mind,
What words to write.
With a blue pen,
On parchment white.

In my minds eye,
What is to see.
A poem of thought,
One of harmony.

A delicate thing,
Scribed with care.
Loved and shaped,
Beyond compare.

One of a kind,
A standalone.
Its message simple,
Its seed is sown.

So slowly grows,
By word of mouth.
Across all divides,
Both north and south.

Burdens are lifted,
As readers smile.
Enjoy the moment,
For a while.

My thoughts expressed,
Line by line.
Shared by all,
Now never mine.

Helo fy ffrind golygus,
this has to be one of my new favourites of yours, sorry I'm so bliddy late..ive not been on much, im so glad i checked in as this is brilliant 
the last line,
"Now never mine"
Really hit the nail on the head, as writers when the poem's read it's something other than yours.. interpretation of work is such an individual thing, the poem means something fundamental to the writer yet can mean something entirely different in its intent for someone else.
Hope all is good and well with you bonny lad
Love lorna x

Oh la la Lorna!
Hello my handsome friend (Helo fy ffrind golygus)
For that is what it means!
Anyway you're right! 
And you're only a tad late here and I'm chuffed you like it.
And that last line you really picked up on and sussed out the poem so well.
For the idiom ' the cat is out of the bag', allow a secret to know and all that.
So hence- one of a kind.
I hope all is well with you and loved ones and life is not too blooming demanding or frenetic for that matter.
One day at a time and make it count but remember to breathe and breathe easy, at your own stroll, your own speed and your own whim and fancy.

And we have got to get our heads together and put something up for this coming Halloween Night.
I mentioned Lazarus Moonchild but I meant Lazarus Moonshadow.
My bad!! I was tired!
For it was gone the witching hour!!!
See and read you soon bonny lass and thank you for stopping by here:)
Shaun xx.

Shaun how beautiful!! The thought processes of writing...no...creating.
You have conveyed this so well to the reader and there is also something poignantly sad about the last line
'Now never mine'
a nurtured thing, lovingly formed, gifted to the world
Just like our very own children at age 18.
Superb x

Max, always good to hear from you and your thoughts and thank you my friend for venturing here and your moral support comments.
My health is on the mend after recent events so yeah, all is well.
And likewise for you too mate.
Mr Sandman and a higher power calleth to me now.
But can promise you I'll be catching up on your recent offerings from tomorrow with good poetry intentions.
And I'll keep said promise.
Take care Max and as always, respect to you my poetry brother.👍
