i know

i always say theres no way im going to do the 1200, but seriously... this time... im really not sure. methinks you will like today's poem esha.

Ah, Sunflower by William Blake

Ah Sun-flower! weary of time.
Who countest the steps of the Sun:
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller's journey is done

Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale Virgin shrouded in snow:
Arise from their graves and aspire,
Where my Sun-flower wishes to go.

is it from the songs of innocence? i think it is...
i think you can do it as dani said :)

but i would prefer it best if you don't pressurize yourself too much and make it a chore...lol you need make it a chore. how about you have a poem day after three days of 12oo words? when you relax, write and read poems... find out prompts for your future writes and write only poems? just a thought.

oooooooooo Blake was a genius... he was more the creator than the observer of things.... yet he did have a air of humanity and silent fraility in his tone... he never competed with God... as people like to call him "Anti-Christ" most of the time. i think he was really religious:)
