Excerpt from the Love Letters of Strunk & White By Doodleslice 2015-03-30 If I could love you with words seven would fetch eleven If I could love you with words there would be no grammar save for ecstatic conjugation If you would love me with words my life would turn on your ellipses One apostrophe, one contraction From participle to participle To future past perfect. #aprilispoetrymonth #poem #poetry #poet #oldie #love #strunkandwhite #atl #atlanta #atlarts #atlpoetry #atlpoet #atlantapoet #doodleslice #lovepoem #lovepoetry #words #wordsoflove (at Doodleslice Dojo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNXMu7-p5ub/?igshid=1wdovjkdumr2k

And see the rivers how they run, Thro’ woods and meads, in shade and sun, Sometimes swift, sometimes slow, Wave succeeding wave, they go A various journey to the deep Like human life to endless sleep! This is nature’s vesture wrought, To instruct our wand’ring thought; Thus she dresses green and gay, To disperse our cares away, Ever charming, ever new, When will the land skip tire the view! The fountain’s fall, the river’s flow, The woody vallies warm and low, The windy summit, wild and high, Roughly rushing on the sky!... — John Dyer (1699-1757), from “Prospects” #aprilispoetrymonth #retreat #flow (at Windridge Solitude) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwD5MCQhauY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18206tlkuvnka

Poetry month 1/30

Young men Pickled skin over sinew Goading each other, praying with barbells Don't build their bodies Only design a threat " why in the local and regional fuck" I wonder, panting.

Sang the sun rise on an amber morn - 
'Earth, be glad! An April day is born. 

'Winter’s done, and April’s in the skies, 
Earth, look up with laughter in your eyes!’ ~Sir Charles George Douglas Roberts

How doth the little crocodile Improve his shining tail, And pour the waters of the Nile On every golden scale! How cheerfully he seems to grin How neatly spreads his claws, And welcomes little fishes in, With gently smiling jaws! by Lewis Carroll #aprilispoetrymonth
