@All,

Hey, thanks for all the kind words. I was raised to respect women so I guess it figures. Glad it did for you all what it did for me. Do pass it on - blokes need to be told reminded!

@Obim,

Hey, sweety!

This is group is fantastic. But the problem is that we are not talking poetry with poetry. Please let us try as much as possible to speak in poetic tone.

Thanks.

Hallucination[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font][color=#770077][/color]

I don't know who he was
So I'm scared of his shadow
Along the lengthy lightless street
I screamed when he came closer
But he stood still behind my shadow.
I saw traces of muscular movement
Towards the lonely path I tread,
At a point I heard massive sound
In batches of muggy muscular troops
Trodden towards my lonely path
All in trance of shattered shadows,
I mellow down on my roaring race
And suddenly stood still on a spot
Then I felt a fierce grip
Of the faceless shadow firmly
On my fragile shoulder's hill
Intermittently, breathless slowly I turned
To view the huge aghast figure
Though once even prior death
But in realization I met
Not fierce figure neither any mug
Nor am I on any lightless street,
Though my rum mind set
Amidst my comic and art library.

I wonder if you guys are willing to draw a sample Kate and Godwin scene.

Seun, are you in any way refering to my poem or the general responses in the tread?

Damn, that poem said it all.

Very nice! To me it seems like a Maya Angelou type of poem!
