Lantern

Here's a poem that I wrote yesterday. I guess it can be considered slam, but I HATE slam, so forget that. Anyway, it's probably one of the shortest things that I've written, but I like it a lot. Enjoy.

Lantern
By Adam Gonzales

And so what if a merciless vapor encircles its fingers around me?
Your fingers are bright and can tear through the night and on that I am counting

An angel's rapport can give nothing more than being a counter
And so for you I will wait, a more timelier date, my dear yellow lantern

For though courage I lack, it's patience I have and your voice will keep me
Afloat and aloft, a beautiful face, so pristine and lovely

To answer yesterday's question you put to me, it by shear luck. I was looking for other writers who share my passion...went to weblogs.com...printed their 5-minute update, and there you were.

And you are really talented. I'm glad I found you out there.

I'm having the same thoughts as you when it comes to "how?" I don't want to spend any money doing it, that's for sure.

SEO? - search engines are a crap shoot.

Pinging? - well it worked for you once! :)

Maybe we can help each other as time passes. One of us is bound to find a PR method that will bring in readers...at least that is my hope.

I'm working at it and from your comment yesterday, you are too...so good luck to both of us, huh? :)

Stop by and see me and my friends efforts sometime. We've really stepped out of the box.

And keep up the dynamite effort! You'll hit soon enough, as good as you are!

Peace, out! :)

I agree. Keep up the effort and "you'll hit soon enough, as good as you are!" I have always been and always will be one of your biggest fans. You have been blessed with the ability to write. I am glad you are using and sharing your talent.
