this. It is also one of my favorite forms. I think I might have used a different word than [bones]. Maybe core, or something indicating the center of the body. All in all, a very thought provoking poem. ~ Gee

Oh sweet sweet the honeyed words
spread out their perfumed air
and touch us all,
and us enthral.

Sweet honeyed words
Spread their perfumes freely
Deep cure

Oh just messing Mand.
I like the thought behind this very much.

Love Ann.

glad you liked it.

Thanks for reading and commenting.
