    Madness is just
    a thinner slice
    of sanity.

    summer--
    wisp of hair
    caught delicately
    by rosebushes
    "I’ve tasted all the sweetest creams
    and danced with daisies in dazed delight;
    sunny skies pervade my dreams
    and light the dark of earthly scenes..."

    A frog just jumped
    oblivious to my stare...
    .
    ...the smell of flowers through metal labyrinths.

    CdnReader,
    where is your splendid
    eight word
    poem?
    "I’ve tasted all the sweetest creams
    and danced with daisies in dazed delight;
    sunny skies pervade my dreams
    and light the dark of earthly scenes..."

    Abundance kills splendour.
    But there's room for exception.

    Splendidness is questionable,
    but here is my poem.

    For those who will listen,
    will words suffice?

    Alas,
    I must go now
    and eat breakfast.

    Morning disappears
    like an apparition
    into the day

    Noon comes,
    with her appetite,
    making me sweat.

    Evening passes
    into night,
    her perfume excites me.

    afternoon is barely born
    while your night thrives
    "I’ve tasted all the sweetest creams
    and danced with daisies in dazed delight;
    sunny skies pervade my dreams
    and light the dark of earthly scenes..."

    Let go now.
    Soar fearlessly.
    Security is overrated.
