welcome to the never

because someone whose opinion matters to me called me a genius this evening, an encore is in order.

welcome to the never

pattern your kisses after my smile
and I will wait a while
to tell you what could be better
if ever
welcome to the never

warm desert winds in your hair
snare the moment
and toss it to the waiting crowd
however
welcome to the never

cut me but don't shut me
out at the plate
I'm not invoking fate in this
endeavor
welcome to the never

the ever ever after the source
of tears and laughter
better shared better dared
bet clever
welcome to the never

This is very mysterious.
Never?
Never say never?
The 12th of never?
or Neverland?
Quothe the raven-Nevermore?

Do tell.

I say it's whimsical, fresh and young. I want to hear it again....in my ear . Mature yet intriging...make me believe that it's true and real. We still can dream can't we? I think we can if we only believe.....in ourselves and the feelings that our hearts make and only our words can describe.

I have an ear for poetry.

I think Neverland is an inspired destination for Starcatchers and fantasies.

Mr. DeVault, you take your readers places they didn't even know they wanted to go...

Thanks, as always, for the inspirations...
