    I want to say hello again
    But I have a bad throat
    So I will write it down
    Isn't it a good way to say hi?

    Oh yeah, it is fun.

    To introduce himself, a bit of verse
    Ready to write, for better or worse
    Poems and stories, and all in between
    Hoping that they will all be seen



    I'm just introducing myself

    There is a newbie who wants to say Hi
    It is a good thing to have lots of newbies
    And Hi is better than thousands of goodbyes
    I am sure newbie will enjoy the site, it's not a lie

    Sorry - that was an answer to Pensive's sad poem. I did not realise there were two pages to this thread.

    I am a newbie
    So hi to you all
    I must go to bed
    Or else I might fall

    Sad ink crushes art's brushes,
    the proper painterly escape
    is enjoyed in new noon thrushes.

    Here's my try - a simple poem I wrote in time of sadness.



    The teacup


    the teacup arrived in the afternoon mail
    a tiny box of mystery
    carelessly, amid the rubble of newsprint

    within
    a beautiful printed teacup
    it sits upon my table

    illumined by morning sun
    it greets me when I wake
    and holds the emptiness of you

    why have you sent me
    this teacup,
    an empy teacup?

    perhaps this teacup saw other loves lost
    other empty hearts
    like mine

    I really should build a fan club for Il Penseroso!
    Can you show us some more of your poems?

    May i claim the spot as your #1 fan Il Penseroso?
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.
