I have nothing to bring to this party
these arms were not made for
holding, handing, helping
I have nothing to bring to this party
this silk was not made for
donning, dressing, draping,
I have nothing to bring to this party
except glittering jewels on velvet night
and they are not so much some giddy gift as a warning

have a happy healthy and productive week everyone

Hi Alicia,
ReplyDeleteAt last I can get into your comment box...I tried and tried last week...blogger eh. This is a great concept ...very clever. For free photos try this site
pdphoto.org-run by Jon Sullivan. :-)
Helen - you are so sweet, I know how frustrating blogger can be :/ What a great site - unfortunately nothing exactly what I want for this poem - but I can definitely see myself using some of the amazing pictures :) Sorry I've been so slack with TP these last few weeks and now you (and Penelope) are making me feel so guilty - so must get back to at least trying to follow my fav poets again :)
