These are my special favourites.
In Praise of…
Recipes, cookbooks, mixers;
Dictionaries; word elixirs;
Interviews, biographies;
Points of views, their energies;
Persevering in their style,
Creative people;
Individuality; virtues, sympathy;
(Doctors who have those a-plenty,
Synthesizing symptoms many –
Unrelated, seemingly.)
Warming water from a tap;
Living things that crawl and creep;
Sleep that really is a sleep!
Senses three, four, five, six, seven
Weaving in degrees of heaven;
Imitation based on hope:
Skills unlimited in scope.
Naturally and finally,
All things that donate to love.
That’s the stuff to be in praise of.
