"Ok, something short and sweet.
Rain
Everyday I watch the rain.
Fall all over me.
But everyday.
Like a fool.
I forget an umbrella.

"Wow Tony! You could put your poems in my writers group as a discussion all by itself.
You are a wonderful poet. You are very good at it!"
Tony Carroll replied to MonkeyPhilosopher's discussion I little something I wrote, What the hell right?? in the group ARS POETICA
"Okay Steph. I promised you another, so here goes:
I traverse the fields of autumns twilight, forged in the crucible of creation.
As I watch, a new glory arises, life, bursting forth to drink thier fill of wonder beyond reason.
I stand…"
MonkeyPhilosopher replied to Dallas the Phallus's discussion What is your favorite stanza or quote from a poem? in the group ARS POETICA
"These few lines are the reason I ever began to write.
I often see flowers from a passing carThat are gone before I can tell what they are.I want to get out of the train and go backTo see what they were beside the track.

Tony Carroll replied to MonkeyPhilosopher's discussion I little something I wrote, What the hell right?? in the group ARS POETICA
"Yes, I did. And I thank you for reading it. I'm generally a very upbeat person. I have been known to break into song, and even dance spontaneously. What the hell, life is to short to worry about what others think. I'm trying to go through…"

"Well I like sad poems myself. (and songs) so it doesn't need to be upbeat.
Did you see my other comment Tony? I made 2 comments."
Tony Carroll replied to MonkeyPhilosopher's discussion I little something I wrote, What the hell right?? in the group ARS POETICA
"Yes, it has, mostly. Except every once in awhile, it still affects me, but more a wistful sadness than otherwise. Next time, I promise something more upbeat, But when I ran into this again, I felt I had to share it. Thanks, Steph. The best to you,…"

Steph S. replied to MonkeyPhilosopher's discussion I little something I wrote, What the hell right?? in the group ARS POETICA

I think the last line is hopeful. You are awaiting time to heal your wounds.
It's wonderfully written and I'm so glad you told me about the poem.
Thanks for being my…"

I have never shared this with anyone other than my…"
