~ THIS IS MY STAY ~
Within the imagination,
I am content to live,
This,
Is my stay....
I see how plenty, how ever-expanding it is
The All, a rich array
Of ever rotating rainbow colors
With which to paint,
And to never,
Ever,
Fade away,
This, is my stay...
My glorious garden, my bridge,
My gateway
Into possibilities scarcely heard,
Fair whispers and inclinations
Where new music can be made,
With purple compliments
Providing shade
Beneath which,
Rich ideas have no graves
Only wellsprings and matinees
Inking inspiration,
It is here
I would eat, sleep, and pray
Yes, this,
This,
Is my stay...
Where,
Time knows no days
And worries have no prey
Where,
Upon passions picnic blankets
Are served
Golden words
Which only ever convey
A never ending display
Of heavenly ballets
And opportunities to say
Anything you wish
Through,
Poetry, book, or play
For,
Within the imagination
True inspiration
Never disobeys,
And never,
Ever,
Fades away
Yes, this,
This,
Is my stay...

Yesss!! Tony I was waiting for you to try your awesome poetic hand at some broken/blank verse poetry. This was fantastic. Your links seem effortless here, allowing for the reader to be engaged without them predicting what happens next. Love the picture also, I wish i could hand write in Times New Roman 12pt too!! XD. You were on fire with this one my friend, killer write. Your friend Fish.
WOW!!....what a great comment Sir FISH!!.....I actually write much more broken/blank verse poetry......freestyle.....than any other kind of poetry.....perhaps you have just happened to catch a spree of Verse and/or Rhyme Scheme driven pieces.....who knows?......regardless, I am so glad you enjoyed what I believe to be my best type poetic self-expression!!......your cyber-friend and ever-admirer.......T xo : )
What we see as perfection can never be, within the eyes of the artist.
I guess this fraction is what drives us, to find the paste to fill the cracks, to drive the nails that hold us tight, to be sturdy, solid, free from disappointment.
You write with heart Tony, always have and always will, hold on to this "stay".
Thank You Sir GERARD!!......your comments are ALWAYS an inspiration to me my friend.....you have a way of understanding my stuff and expressing that understanding with words that are uplifting and more than generous.......I do SO look forward to them!!....Thanx again for being most kind and uncommonly insightful!!.......I am your cyber-friend and Ever-admirer!!......T xo : )
Just pure acceptance here Tony, contentment. A realisation that regardless what goes on in front of our eyes, always we can chose to escape...to inhabit the limitless and to be in wonderment that there are so many ways to project that into the physical...great write X
WOW!! MARION!!...."To Inhabit The Limitless".....I hope you don't mind but I am going to borrow that phrase and form it into something....not sure yet what it might become......but I will certainly keep you apprised......after all....you can meet me there anytime you'd like (smiles)......I am most pleased and inspired by this comment dear poet sister!!......Thank you SO much!!.......Peace n Stuff!!.......T xo : )

Tony your imagination is no flimsy house of cards but robust and solid and deep rooted from life's and poetry's bedrock.
A poem lovingly dove tailed together with from what I've read not a word out of place or wasted.
And you say The All and what a superb choice of words to describe your imagination.
Beautifully defined and expressed.
Your poetry is a joy to read, to learn and enlighten.
A wonderous piece to take nourishing stock from.
Salutations to you Tony, for lovingly sharing your poetic imagination and so brightly too.
