THE POETICVERSE

I seem to have forgotten,
Somethings that I know.
But one thing I know for sure,
The poetry inside still flows.

It doesn't come to easily,
Having slowed up over time.
But I can still turn a phrase,
Into ( I hope) a readable rhythm.

I've traversed the universe,
Lived amongst the stars.
Travelled outside myself.
Too place's within my heart.

Walked the shores of poetbay,
Been swept up along the way.
Found many a mentor there,
Where the poeticverse is laid.

I've dined of all the poets there,
Yet I've never had my fill. Patiently
I await for their poem's to come,
As I know they always will.

To stir the pathways in my mind,
Into concocting one more rhythm.
Of a place a poem out of time,
That dances along most every line.

I wrote all this down at night,
Hopefully it came out all right.
Well at least all but the last line,
Think it should be an interesting rhythm.
