Now That It's Through (No -E- Poem) by Mary -BrytEyz- Ball

David Taub issued a challenge at WrittenByMe.com to write a love poem without the letter "e" in it. It sure looked easier than it was. :) He proffered a couple fine examples himself to show it could be done, and done well at that. My reply to him donned not an "e" as did my answer to his challenge.

NOW THAT IT'S THROUGH

Lost and solitary I cry
What do I do without him?
Still stumbling around, I try
Occasions for bliss worn thin

Many misty thoughts try to call
It's all lost in cognition
No crowing in front of this fall
from such a lofty position

I can't find any words to troll
That say just what I harbor
Is it a sword within my soul
Upon a spit and arbor

I lost all that I thought I had
dry as sand in baking sun
But still, for what it's worth, I'm glad
now that all's said and not won

Lost and solitary I sigh
Knowing what to do without him
Stop stumbling around and try
to go on donning my grin

My reply to him also had no letter "e" in it... here is what I said to that great poet in the UK...

You did a job hard to do,
and did it grandly I might add.
This may turn out copy cats,
and just might turn into a fad.

I can't think of many words
to say thoughts without an "e",
but this try was writ smoothly.
Kudos to your ability!
