colourful footmen adjectives
attending in green blue and red
grass sky sunset
strapping chaps adverbs
smartly purposefully marching with
action heroes bodybuilders amazons
up where? what in? and but the a or ah!
seamsters and welders with names
prepositions conjunctions exclamations interrogatives
five times longer than themselves
words unconscionable pranksters
faulty alarms that go off in the small hours
charmers deceivers kneetremblers quakemakers
one-time offenders and recidivists
imps winking on the windowsills of imagination
formal and casual friday
crawling across a page or gallivanting to nowhere
discouragers fillips partners
Opened my computer and what did I see, but this amazing poem marching artfully toward me! Thanks, John.

Yes, yes, and yes, and to be a maestro of their lot is a talent I fail miserably. To scribe or espouse where my imagination is roaming or my heart and love are skipping happily along, how I struggle. Do you have any idea how challenging it is to relate the absolute love you have and hold for the most precious love of your life? Have you wrestled with your most soul searching credo and then been unable to share it with the woman of your life? Words, words, words John my friend have left me in ecstasy and shoved me forlorn into the depths of misery. To relate what the human spirit wants to share is an art, I am not an artist of the discipline. Ever your friend, Jon Michael
A beautifully written and personal response
Jon, My Friend
Thank You for sharing such deep and precious feelings.
Ever Your Friend

Wonderful, John. There is always something in each of your poems that just GRABS me. This time is was “imps winking on the windowsills of imagination”. You have such an incredible grasp of the power of words!
Noelle
This is the sort of response that makes me humble and makes
me want to try harder.
Thank you so much

Hard things to keep in check too, John. How many times have they high-jacked what you wanted to say and usurped your meaning with theirs? You have expressed this most eloquently. A great piece!
Excellent response, Chris
Thank you very much

Where have you been John? Not blogging much or am I somehow missing your blogs? Must admit lots going on here and I try to read as many as possible, but when they get far down in the Reader I sometimes miss them.
Sciatica, Judy..we’re at war again
In another message I recommended a drug called Reumofan Plus. Just did some research on why it is banned and found this information: http://www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/SafetyInformation/SafetyAlertsforHumanMedicalProducts/ucm306360.htm but, I must say if I had terrible duress I couldn’t get rid of any other way that I would take it again because for all of my friends who took it, it only took one or two pills and their pain disappeared. Probably impossible to get now anyway, but….
I have a guy who gives miracle massages. Wish I could send him to you. Cured my sciatica with two deep tissue massages. He really is a wonder worker. Sciatica is miserable. Hard to concentrate on much else.
There is also a drug herein Mexico called reumaofan that does wonders…I think it isn’t legal in the U.S., but it has relieved friends (and myself) of incredible pain with just one or two doses. It is supposed to be all natural and sells in health stores but it is rumored to have cortisone in it. But actually for one or two doses, what difference does it make if it relieves pain? Need to check on that name…and spelling. I think you can get it on the Internet.
You have very skilfully classified all these “fillips partners’, John, beginning with the RGB colored adjectives. Delightful read.
Inese
Thank You, Inese

I always learn new words from your poem 🙂 Thank you for delightful poem to start my week! Have a great week, Bapak John 🙂
Indah, Friend
Thank You

You’re so wordy! But seriously, you’re one of the few I learn from (the rare times I’m here reading) You show many new ways to kick a verb, and all the angles to project an adjective etc. Keep wording responsibly 🙂
Great response
Thank You
john
This work is a microcosm and a macrocosm of linguistic brilliance – sheer genius. I love it. It takes my breath away.

“imps winking on the windowsills of imagination…”

Best Always to You
