Guest guest Posted August 16, 1999 Report Share Posted August 16, 1999 Dear Dharma and David: Should you or anyone have an interest in "more strange poetry" please drop me a note, as I have vast quantities. If you desire a custom written poem, let me know, as no topic is too difficult and I enjoy a challenge. You may specify the "style" as well, be it Elizabethan or Petrarchan Sonnet, Limerick, Blank Verse, Free Verse, Sarabande, Haiku or Tanka. If you know of other styles, throw them at me...I am versatile. (groan) I am sure we can work out the details! PS I am preparing a collection of Poetry for late fall, winter publication, so please let folks know and I will try to let you know when it is available.

How about an Elizabethan love sonnet from Purusha to Prakriti?

Guest guest Posted August 16, 1999 Report Share Posted August 16, 1999 Dear Dharma: DHEA in the form of Elizabethan Sonnet...No Problem Hath Thou Forsaken My Own Sweet Temple by: Druid Robert (Zenbob) In footfalls quiet, beyond the measure of man Did I awaken to discover a physiological plan- Foreshadowed on every inch and body part there Indicated by wrinkle, by furrow by gray, gray hair. "What madness this?" asked I in fearful voice "Have I no control, no other fate or choice?" My heart beat heavily within my tired breast "Yet, shall I find some rue to give me zest!" Out of the house flying on scared winged feet I ran Desperately would try myriad vitamins, herbs and Bran, Ginseng, Ecchinacea, St. John's Wort I tried them all Until the sage advice of a Taoist sage did I recall "Seek ye the natural path and sleep when weary" I recalled DHEA and Melatonin and grew cheery, So many extolled its virtues they could not be wrong I took a bit and felt better, began to grow strong. A little was good, more would be better, I thought And took bottle after bottle all that could be bought I needed only to be growing younger, a wee bit Alas, after months of taking DHEA, my clothes don't fit. You asked for it, you got it! LOL Blessings, Love, Zenbob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 1999 Report Share Posted August 16, 1999 Hi Zenbob, >Should you or anyone have an interest in "more strange poetry" > >please drop me a note, as I have vast quantities. I'm always interested in strange poetry. >If you desire a custom written poem, let me know, as no topic is too >difficult and I enjoy a challenge.

If you know of other styles, throw them at me...I >am versatile. (groan) You must have been a Druid!! They had to be able to create and speak poetry extemporaneously on any subject and in any style and meter. What fun! Let's see... don't want to get too far from list interests... how about an Elizabethan sonnet on DHEA? Love, Dharma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 18, 1999 Report Share Posted August 18, 1999 Strange is an understatement, Bob. Stay Inspired, David (how 'bout one regarding that particular taste of drinking orange juice immediately after brushing your teeth?)
