XXXXXXA TECHNICAL FRIENDSHIP
X
In creating this bloggy friendship,
I'm trying not to trip over twice told tales
of an earlier reflection.
x
I paint my authenticity
in shades of white lies
because I've learned that we all genuflect
to inspirational prattle.
x
I splash an agreeably vibrant perfume,
color my escapades a luxuriant hue,
magnify heroics
so that you'll unravel
the riddle of me
x
in my favor.
x
By stage-managing and sleight-of-hand
I'm preparing you to wave flags
in my parade,
to believe in my pluckiness,
laugh at my hilarity,
x
defend my copyrighted word,
x
even as I strive
to make whole cloth out of you.

I love the part "so that you'll unravel the riddle of me in my favor!" Isn't that what we all want?
Hi Gaston-
Thank you...I think you're absolutely right..that is what we want! We all need the approval!
Perfect. I wrote the same poem once only with different words, of course. Yours is more captivating...I'm not much of a poet.
Hi Starlene-
Thanks..pretty funny..same but different..maybe we were separated at birth!!
Well Lyn, I've always believed every word you've said. Tell me it's true!
Hi Derrick-
Everything, all the facts are true! I just sometimes write funny..because it's fun!!
We all re-create ourselves, just a bit, in our favor, don't we? It's the beauty of blogging. Love the poem.
Hi Willow-
Thank you..it is this interesting bloggy experiment, creatively presenting oneself..I love that I don't know where it's going!
Reinvention Lyn...The beauty of the written word and the joy of the land of blogging. I have come to believe that here we may be more of the beauty we aspire to if a perfect world existed I love the beauty of your blog lady.
Hugs

Hi Jeane-
Thanks..I'm scheduling a parade for the next clear day!
Hi Natalie-
You are at the top of my list for sincerity (shared )..I too am sincere..but I like to make goofy faces from time to time. Always, thanks!!
Ahhh... 'to unravel someone's riddle'. And in their favour? If someone must untie the knot that holds you together as a whole, it's better to show him/her the warts and all. Lovely poem, I loved it from beginning to end. The use of 'copyrighted' brought a smile to my face on this rainy afternoon.
Greetings from London.
Greetings to A Cuban-
Thank you..I can always count on you for clarity..
There are 3 words that we use interchangably, but are they?...True, real, authentic!
Clear, sunny, still coolish here..a good day..
