"Your every word" [villanelles]
and remember --
hit the ‘send’ button.
Alaka Yeravadekar, Please don’t send me fwds
Your every word I love to comprehend
ambrosial words of yours my eyeballs read
but only when you write & then hit send
perhaps you wait to edit & amend?
alas! you starve my brain's desire & need
your every word I love to comprehend
our time of life each moment we expend
we purchase what? our action sows what seed?
explain it please to me! & then hit send
an error naturally we would forfend
are lazy words so dangerous indeed?
your every word I love to comprehend
each line is like a vile in which we blend
the newt the leaf the ingot what we bleed
becomes a rose that blooms when we hit send
deliberate or impromptu? words unpenned
were promises the keyboard's dance has freed!
your every word I love to comprehend
delighted when you write & then hit send

unusual. In a reflective mood are we?
Delightful. Love "the promises the keyboard's dance has freed" And "are lazy words dangerous?"
Professor Murthy,
I'm afraid a reflective mood & moi are seemingly as inseparable as water & its quality of wetness. (Although perhaps I make this remark in a hyperbolic mood.) But thanks for noticing. ;-)
Srimati Batul,
really I'm delighted to have you as reader, and to note -- as here -- what catches your astute attention.
btw I'd initially written "pantomimes" for "promises" -- but changed it, feeling more interesting & fuller meanings to emerge with the other P word (at least as set in this stanza).
cheers,
d.i.
Yes, "promises" does evoke more.
