An etheree (for Lisa)

[Brigid Briton]

Dedicated to Lisa, who brought the etheree here for our poetic pleasure:

Late,
up late,
so sleepy,
but have to write,
poetry, of course,
it’s always poetry,
that’s just the way my mind works,
so I’m up late again writing,
fingers counting out the syllables
an insomniac poet’s etheree.

Thanks, Lisa! poetry-here-and-now.proboards.com/thread/1812/blind-faith-etheree

Hi Brigid,

you have captured the soul of a poet in this brilliant Etheree...I love it!

thanks for the dedication, it's much appreciate

Hi Lisa,

Well, you deserve it. I love that you keep bringing me little presents in the form of new types of poetry that I'm too lazy or scattered to go out and track down myself. Kind of like my cat does with lizards, etc. Maybe I should join your forum???

I think, if you could have seen me in the middle of the night, exhausted, but determined to finish this little exercise, well, that was probably poetry addiction in (slow) motion!

[Lisa Arnold]

Brigid, I would love for you to join my forum

just to let you know, it is pretty slow on my forum, not many posts there at the moment...

Hi Brigid and Lisa

Love this poem and finding out about a new form. Hadn't heard of it before. I'm sure I'll try it, the next time I'm up in the middle of the night. Almost felt like I was there!
