 Fluff or Bite

After a weekend away from writing poetic words;
Spending time with my wife, my grandson, the birds.
Seeds for my writings are plentiful in my poetry bag;
The fires in the furnace burns, I brush away the slag.

Poetry of deep meaning to myself, or maybe to you;
Or maybe simply fun, like a visit to the petting zoo.
Churning out the words from my soul onto this paper;
Will the poetry be fluff or bite, or simply water vapor.

I try to have very little conscious control over my lines;
As I attempt escape from my limited self's confines.
Writing romantic poetry brings tremendous joy to my soul;
Yet the poetry of the stronger topics make me whole.

Both, I have discovered,  have there place in my heart;
Wisdom, faith, joy, peace; each have their own gift to impart.
My dear reader, on this journey into poetry I do invite;
Open your heart and enjoy, whether it be fluff or bite.
