Words Heart Rendered

Words Heart Rendered What is a poet's soul? love and passion for a start torment and misery from a deep dark abyss; imagination stolen from the stars, inspiration's fine art and true dedication high upon heaven's first list! Or is it words heart rendered? sweet beams of mornings light, cast forth without fight bouncing against dark forests of deadly trees; into thickened weathered bark wrapped so very tight morphing into angels upon rare beauty's pleas! What is a poet's way? simple arrows slung from gleaming bows words flying within mystical , egotistical softened clouds; tales of life's beauty, infinity and bright glittering shows shadows eating mysteries wrapped in fattened rainbow shrouds! Or is it sad pains echoing? within a golden ring chiming crystal bell chills and thrills pouring in cold hardened purple rain cracks springing across space and time into mind's hardy shell colors cast into running waters making such emotional stains!

what is the poet's purpose....outside of making the heart feel the opposite of worthless....what is the poet's muse....a woman's eyes, a man's hands, a child's smile, possibly, because there is nothing I won't use....what is the poet's creed....attempting to write a world where we all will succeed....very profound my friend....
